AriaTM Insecticide. Finally, a new chemistry aphids won't be able to resist. Actually, neither will you.

Aphids. They're one of the most destructive pests in greenhouses today, attacking almost every species of ornamental plant grown. That's why you need to add a powerful weapon to your treatment rotation. You need to add Aria - the new insecticide/aphicide from FMC.


Aria delivers a new chemistry with clout.

Aria represents a new chemical class (Pyridinecarboxamide) with a unique mode of action. It is active by contact and and also by ingestion. Both immature and adult stages are controlled by Aria and higher temperatures do not reduce its efficacy.

Aria provides a unique mode of action that is highly effective against aphids.

The active ingredient in Aria is flonicamid, a novel chemistry that stops aphids from feeding within one hour of treatment, eliminating them altogether in 3-5 days as a result of dehydration and starvation. That means you can protect your investment by stopping their damaging behavior quickly and effectively - plus Aria aids in defending against virus transmission.

Aria is effective against many aphids that can attack greenhouse crops.

Some of the species controlled by Aria include:

  • Chrysanthemum aphid (Macrosiphoniella sanborni)
  • Pea aphid (Acyrthosiphon pisum)
  • Rose aphid (Macrosiphoniella rosae)
  • Spirea aphid (Aphis citricola)
  • Green peach aphid (Myzus persicae)
  • Melon aphid (Aphis gossypii)

Aria has no cross-resistance with other insecticides.

As a greenhouse professional, you know the importance of rotating chemistries to avoid resistance developing among greenhouse pests. In fact, 2% to 5% of pests that are impervious to one chemistry can grow to 30% in as few as 3 to 5 years. That's a large number when you consider the destruction aphids can cause relative to your greenhouse investment.

Aria is tough on aphids. Easy on beneficials.

Aria is tough on all major species of aphids but easy on most plant species and ornamentals. It's a softer, "green" chemistry around birds, honeybees and beneficials, with no effect on coleopterans, lepidopterans or arachnids. And Aria has a "Caution" signal word with low use rates, making it an excellent product to add to your treatment rotation.
