Laser 8.4% SC

Laser is a highly effective miticide, targeting motile stages, especially adults. It acts primarily through stomach poisoning with limited contact effect, while also penetrating plant leaves for enhanced control. By activating gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA), it disrupts nerve signal transmission, causing paralysis and eventual death of insects and spider mites.
