Wireworm image - For Wireworms, it's Game Over

Teraxxa® and Teraxxa® F4 Seed Treatments

Get early-season insect protection so your cereal crops have the best chances to succeed. Teraxxa® and Teraxxa F4 seed treatments are the only products that rapidly eliminate wireworms across all species and developmental stages. 

 

Featuring the active ingredient, Broflanilide, these seed treatments outperform and outlast neonicotinoid insecticides. They’re proven to eliminate wireworms in wheat and those reduced populations have a positive benefit on rotational crops, too, helping to improve yield potential.

    How Teraxxa and Teraxxa F4 Seed Treatments Work

    Powerful New Active Ingredient:

    • While other active ingredients provide temporary intoxication, the new active ingredient in Teraxxa and Teraxxa F4 seed treatments, Broflanilide, quickly controls populations to eliminate wireworms across all species and developmental stages.

     

    Increased Yield Potential

    • Wireworms are small, but their impact is significant. They can cause up to 80% in lost yield and stunt the growth of the remaining seedlings. Teraxxa and Teraxxa F4 seed treatments help maximize your yield potential by stopping wireworms from root and seedling feeding.

     

    Protects Against Spectrum Diseases Too

    • Teraxxa F4 Seed Treatment goes further than just controlling wireworm populations. It utilizes four fungicide modes of action to protect against diseases such as Fusarium root rot and seedling blight so your crops have a healthy environment to grow.
