PREV-AM as a resistance management and IPM tool


Adding PREV-AM to a spray program can extend the useful life of insecticides and pesticides that may be susceptible to the development of resistance. PREV-AM can be a valuable addition to insect and disease management spray programs. Its unique physical mode of action makes resistance development highly unlikely. PREV-AM can either replace application(s) of a susceptible pesticide or be added as an additional application in the spray rotation.


The quick knockdown of PREV-AM makes it a great addition to an IPM program. An application can be timed to control insects and diseases only when they reach the economic threshold, and because it is a contact pesticide and has no residual activity, PREV-AM applications can be made to avoid impacting beneficials.
