Mycotrol ESO is an emulsifiable suspension mycoinsecticide containing the entomopathogenic fungus Beauveria bassiana strain GHA. It is OMRI listed for organic production. This product is used to control a wide variety of pests, including whiteflies, aphids, thrips, psyllids, mealybugs, leafhoppers, weevils, plant bugs, borers, grasshoppers, Mormon crickets, and locusts. It is suitable for use on listed food crops, forestry, orchard crops, and nonfood crops grown outdoors in various settings such as nurseries, greenhouses, shadehouses, mushroom houses, commercial landscapes, and turf. The product works by fungal spores penetrating the cuticle of the target pest. When applying, shake well before use. For low-volume applications, it can be used with ultra-low volume equipment. Note that the product is potentially pathogenic to honeybees; avoid applying where bees are actively foraging. It may also be toxic to fish and aquatic organisms, so avoid application near water or areas with surface water present.
