RESISTANCE MANAGEMENT
THIAMETHOXAM GROUP 4A INSECTICIDE
THIAMETHOXAM GROUP 4A INSECTICIDE
For resistance management, CruiserMaxx Vibrance Cereals contains a Group
4A/thiamethoxam insecticide. Any insect population may contain individuals naturally
resistant to CruiserMaxx Vibrance Cereals and other Group 4A insecticides. The
resistant individuals may dominate the insect population if this group of insecticides are
used repeatedly in the same fields. Appropriate resistance-management strategies
should be followed.
Insecticide Resistance Management
For resistance management, note that CruiserMaxx Vibrance Cereals contains a Group
4A/thiamethoxam insecticide. Insect biotypes with acquired or inherent resistance to
Group 4A insecticides may eventually dominate the insect population if Group 4A
insecticides are used repeatedly as the predominant method of control for targeted
species. This may result in partial or total loss of control of those species by CruiserMaxx
Vibrance Cereals or other Group 4A insecticides.
Thiamethoxam is a systemic insecticide belonging to the neonicotinoid class of
chemistry which includes nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (nAChR) agonists.
In order to maintain susceptibility to this class of chemistry:
x Use products at their full, recommended doses.
x Use appropriate, well-maintained equipment. Use recommended water volumes and
apply at optimal temperatures in order to obtain optimal treatment.
x When rate ranges are given, use the higher rate within the listed rate range when
insect pressure is expected to be high.
x Avoid using a single active ingredient or mode of action (same insecticide group)
exclusively for season long control of insect species with more than one generation
per crop season.
x For insect species with successive or overlapping generations, use a treatment
window approach. A treatment window is a period of time defined by the stage of
crop development and the biology of the pests of concern. Within the treatment
window, depending on the length of residual activity, single or consecutive
applications may be made using seed, in-furrow, or foliar treatments unless
otherwise excluded by product labels. Do not exceed the maximum amount of this
insecticide’s mode of action allowed per growing season.
To delay insecticide resistance, take the following steps:
x Rotate the use of CruiserMaxx Vibrance Cereals or other Group 4A insecticides
within a growing season, or among growing seasons, with different groups that
control the same pests.
x Use tank mixtures with insecticides from a different group that are equally
effective on the target pest when such use is permitted. Do not rely on the same
mixture repeatedly for the same pest population. Consider any known cross-
resistance issues (for the targeted pests) between the individual components of a
mixture. In addition, consider the following recommendations provided by the
Insecticide Resistance Action Committee (IRAC):
o Individual insecticides selected for use in mixtures should be highly
effective and be applied at the rates at which they are individually
registered for use against the target species.
CruiserMaxx Vibrance Cereals
-7-
x Following a treatment window of this insecticide’s mode of action, rotate to a
treatment window of effective products with a different mode of action before making
additional applications of this insecticide.
o Mixtures with components having the same IRAC mode of action
classification are not recommended for insect resistance management.
o When using mixtures, consider any known cross-resistance issues
between the individual components for the targeted pest(s).
o Mixtures become less effective if resistance is already developing to one
or both active ingredients, but they may still provide pest management
benefits.
o The insect resistance management benefits of an insecticide mixture are
greatest if the two components have similar periods of residual insecticidal
activity. Mixtures of insecticides with unequal periods of residual
insecticide activity may offer an insect resistance management benefit
only for the period where both insecticides are active.
x Adopt an integrated pest management program for insecticide/acaricides use
that includes scouting, uses historical information related to pesticide use, crop
rotation, record keeping, and which considers cultural, biological and other
chemical control practices.
x Monitor after application for unexpected target pest survival. If the level of
survival suggests the presence of resistance, consult with your local university
specialist or certified pest control advisor.
x Contact your local extension specialist or certified crop advisors for any
additional pesticide resistance-management and/or IPM recommendations for
the specific site and pest problems in your area.
