AGRI-MEK IS CURRENTLY ONLY LABELED FOR MANAGEMENT OF TWOSPOTTED SPIDER MITES IN FL STRAWBERRY AND IS EFFECTIVE IN SPIDER MITE SUPPRESSION. CHILLI THRIPS ARE THE MOST SEVERE PEST OF STRAWBERRY IN FLORIDA AND VERY FEW INSECTICIDES ARE EFFECTIVE FOR CHILLI THRIPS MANAGEMENT. OUR ONE YEAR OF FIELD STUDY (2022-2023) SHOWS SIGNIFICANT SUPPRESSION CAPABILITY OF AGRI-MEK FOR CHILLI THRIPS. AGRI-MEK COULD BE EFFECTIVE ROTATION PRODUCT LATE IN THE SEASON WHEN THRIPS AND SPIDER MITE POPULATIONS PEAK.
