Foray 76 B
Environment-Friendly Highly Effective Biological Larvicide
Foray is an economical and environmentally friendly biological larvicide used in forest pest control programs. It contains the spores and unique crystalline proteins produced by the naturally occurring bacterium Bacillus thuringiensis kurstaki (Btk), strain ABTS-351.
Foray is not only a product; it represents years of knowledge and field experience. It was specifically developed for forestry, and its efficacy and quality have been proven.
Foray differs from other forest products with its specific mode of action. Its active ingredient, Btk strain ABTS-351, acts when ingested by target lepidopteran larvae. The toxin is activated only in the digestive system of susceptible larvae, disrupts the midgut, stops feeding, and causes death within 2-5 days.
