Zoltek F3 is a botanical insecticide designed to control Whitefly (Bemisia tabaci). Its formulation combines a complex of compounds with different modes of action, such as alkaloids and various fatty acids. These compounds work synergistically, causing multiple deterrent effects such as sexual disruption, starvation, behavioral changes, and damage to the insect cuticle.

The product also affects the endocrine and nervous systems (central and parasympathetic); synaptic transmission is disrupted, causing involuntary movements and/or ataxia, resulting in rapid control of mobile stages. The fatty acids in the formulation provide strong ovicidal action, complementing the product’s efficacy.

Zoltek F3 is an essential tool within integrated pest management programs, offering broad-spectrum control over different instars and species of whitefly.
