BioWorks Epishield O | 2 fl oz | Botanical Miticide & Insecticide

Advanced Pest Management with Botanical Miticide

The Bioworks EpiShield O represents a significant leap in natural pest control technology, utilizing a potent blend of peppermint and clove oils to eliminate soft-bodied insects. Unlike heavy horticultural oils, this formula achieves superior efficacy at a fraction of the concentration, drastically reducing the risk of plant stress or residue buildup. It targets pests through three distinct modes of action—suffocation, paralysis, and desiccation—ensuring that mites, thrips, and whiteflies cannot develop resistance. This makes it an invaluable asset for long-term Integrated Pest Management (IPM) strategies in commercial greenhouses.

Maximize Yields with Bio-Based Insecticide Efficiency

Efficiency is at the core of the Bioworks EpiShield O design, featuring a 0-hour Restricted Entry Interval (REI) and a 0-day Pre-Harvest Interval (PHI). Growers can treat their crops and return to work immediately, maintaining a seamless production schedule even during peak harvest times. As an EPA-exempt insecticide, it requires minimal PPE and no specialized spray equipment, simplifying your application process. Whether used as a foliar spray or a dipping solution, this formula provides professional-grade protection for food crops, ornamentals, and indoor plants while remaining safe for the environment.
