Used as an acaricide in agriculture, particularly effective against mite pests in fruit, vegetable, and tea crops. It targets all life stages of mites, including eggs and adults, making it valuable for integrated pest management. Its mode of action involves disrupting energy production in mite cells, leading to high efficacy with low mammalian toxicity. Often applied as a foliar spray, it provides long-lasting control and is suitable for use in resistance management programs due to its unique chemical class.
