Nuke em Kills Hard to Kill Citrus Mealy Bug
The following study was done on Citrus Mealy Bugs by Kansas State University, Department of Entomology.
The Citrus Mealy Bug is a very hard to kill insect and has been described as “resilient, tough, invulnerable, tenacious and adaptable”. The study was to help find new insecticides on the market and test their efficacy on the Citrus Mealy Bug. Nuke em accomplished a 60% kill rate against the Citrus Mealy Bug using the lowest strength listed on the label. A 60% kill rate is extraordinarily good considering the insect tested and the application of Nuke em’s lowest dose! The study implies that more testing should be done to determine the dose and application modifications needed for a 100% kill. It is also important to note that over a year had passed from the date the Nuke em bottle was delivered to Kansas State University and the date it was sprayed on the Citrus Mealy Bugs. This also helps to show that Nuke em’s shelf life is excellent for an organic insecticide/fungicide.
