Movento 24C renewed for Citrus in CA

Movento (spirotetramet) has been renewed for use on citrus  Asian citrus psyllid in California.  It's a foliar spray that is systemic especially moving to new tissue where ACP feeds.  It also controls some other pests, such as thrips and leafminer.  It has a short persistence effect on natural enemies and has low toxicity issues.

As an interesting aside, I just learned that cryolite (Kryocide, Pro-Kil) which was considered for organic registration at one time, has lost its registration. It was a stomach poison that worked on leaf-feeding beetles and lepidopteran pests like orange tortrix.  The high level of fluoride necessitated its loss of registration.
