Field Trial Findings
This report presents the findings of a field trial evaluating the effectiveness of Dustex in reducing dust-related issues that worsen red spider mite (Tetranychus urticae) infestations in citrus plantations. Conducted in Huelva, Spain - an area significantly affected by red spider mite - the study compared three treatments on agricultural roads: no treatment (control), periodic water spraying, and Dustex application. Dustex outperformed the other methods, offering a cost-effective and efficient solution to your pest problems.
