RESTRIKE – Advanced Biological Protection with Lecanicillium spp.

Advanced biological protection against pests and eggs through the action of Lecanicillium spp.. Complete microbiological formula with mycorrhizae and rhizosphere bacteria for long-lasting natural defense.

Description

RESTRIKE harnesses the entomopathogenic power of three selected Lecanicillium spp. strains, effective against soft-bodied insects and eggs. Spores adhere to the insect’s exoskeleton, germinate, and penetrate using strong lytic enzymes, leading to dehydration and death. At the same time, mycorrhizae and beneficial bacteria colonize the root system, strengthening the plant and enhancing nutrient uptake.

Microbiological Composition

• Endo-mycorrhizae: 1%
• Lecanicillium spp. (3 strains): 3×10? CFU/g
• Other rhizosphere bacteria: 3×107 CFU/g

Mode of Action

• Lecanicillium spores adhere to the insect cuticle and penetrate using lytic enzymes.
• Cause dehydration and death of the pest through cellular lysis.
• Mycorrhizae and beneficial bacteria colonize the roots, enhancing plant vigor and nutrient uptake.
• Provides both preventive and curative protection with zero chemical residues.

Target / Controls

• Aphids (Aphis spp., Myzus spp.)
• Whiteflies
• Leafhoppers
• Thrips
• Insect eggs
• Juvenile stages of soft-bodied insects

When to Use

• Preventively every 20–25 days
• Every 5–10 days in case of active infestation
• Ideal for greenhouses, protected crops, and aphid-prone environments
