CAUTION
Mode of Action
Biological Nematicide
DiTera contains metabolites produced by Myrothecium verrucaria, a naturally occurring soil fungus. The active metabolites — primarily cyclopeptides and trichothecene-related compounds — interfere with nematode hatching, penetration, and development. They suppress juvenile emergence from eggs and disrupt chemoreception, reducing the ability of nematodes to locate host roots. Activity is primarily suppressive rather than curative.
