A proven natural insecticide. Entrust™ insecticide with Qalcova™ active (spinosad) is the world’s number one natural insecticide for organic agriculture. Qalcova active is an effective insecticide made from a naturally occurring soil bacteria (Saccharpolyspora spinosa). It controls harmful insects while being kinder to beneficials and pollinators when used according to the product label. With cross-spectrum control and a unique mode of action, Entrust is a perfect fit for integrated pest management programs.

Benefits

For use on certified organically grown crops

Quick knockdown

Provides quick knockdown and solid residual activity.

Insect control
