Sil-MATRIX introduces a novel active ingredient—soluble silica—to crop protection. When spray applied, it controls the mites and insects it contacts suppressing their populations. Sil-MATRIX also forms a physical barrier within the leaf cuticle that prevents penetration of fungal diseases, primarily powdery mildew.
Sil-MATRIX is a preventive fungicide and a contact miticide/insecticide.
Diseases controlled by Sil-MATRIX include:
- Powdery mildew
- Gray mold rot (Botrytis cinerea) on blueberry
Pests controlled on contact include:
- Mites
- Aphids
- Whiteflies
