Q:

The difference between sweeping mites and pyridaben

ask a question
A:
Worldwide, the problem of mites is increasing, especially in houseplant, offices and public places. In order to effectively deal with this problem, there are many kinds of mites on the market, of which the two most common are mop-up and pyridaben. Although both claim to be effective in removing mites, there are significant differences in ingredients, methods of use, and effects. This article will analyze the difference between sweeping mites and pyridaben from a professional perspective to help you make an informed choice.


1. problem core: composition comparison and use scenario

1.1 composition comparison

The main component of the mop is p-methyldichlorobenzylamine, a synthetic active substance produced by a chemical reaction. It is a broad-spectrum acaricide that can effectively kill many types of mites, including body surface mites, nematodes and some fungi. Because its composition is a natural chemical substance, the use environment of mite cleaning is relatively strict, and it usually needs to be used under the guidance of professional institutions to ensure its safety.

The main components of pyridaben are p-methyldichlorobenzamide and p-methylhydrochlorothiazide, of which p-methyldichlorobenzamide is the same as sweeping mites, and p-methylhydrochlorothiazide is a new type of biologically active substance. It can enhance the biocompatibility and acaricidal effect of p-methyldichlorobenzamide. Due to the presence of its bioactive components, pyridaben has relatively relaxed environmental requirements when used.

1,2 use scenarios

Because the composition is a single chemical substance, it is necessary to strictly abide by the concentration and operation specifications of the product description when used, which is especially suitable for indoor mite removal and plant maintenance and other professional fields. It has a wide range of applications in offices, homes and public places.

Due to the existence of its bioactive components, pyridaben not only has an efficient acaricidal effect, but also can be used in indoor and outdoor environments, especially suitable for places with low environmental requirements. Because its composition is not easy to accumulate, it will not cause secondary pollution to the surrounding environment after use.


2. problem core: efficacy and effect analysis

2.1 efficacy comparison

The main active ingredient of anti-mite is p-methyldichlorobenzamide, and its acaricidal mechanism is mainly through inhibiting the neurotransmission and metabolic activities of mites. Because of its single mechanism of action, it has limited effect on certain types of mites.

The active ingredient of pyridaben has different mechanisms of action on methyldichlorobenzamide and methylhydrochlorothiazide. The former mainly inhibits neurotransmission, while the latter improves the acaricidal effect by enhancing biocompatibility. Therefore, pyridaben is more comprehensive in killing a variety of mites, especially in killing surface mites and nematodes.

22 use effect

Sweeping mites performed very well in indoor mite removal, but the effect of killing mites in outdoor environment was relatively limited. Therefore, it is more suitable for places where strict control of indoor mites is required.

Due to the presence of its biologically active ingredients, pyridaben can not only effectively kill indoor mites, but also work normally in the outdoor environment, so it is widely used in commercial places, families and public places.


3. problem core: safety and environmental protection

3.1 security

Because its composition is a single chemical substance, it needs to strictly follow the instructions when using it, otherwise it may have a negative impact on the environment and human health. Because its ingredients are synthetic, long-term use may have adverse effects on the soil and ecosystem.

Due to the presence of its bioactive components, pyridaben not only has higher biocompatibility, but also can reduce environmental pollution. Therefore, it is safer to use, especially in large-scale applications, and has high environmental protection.

3.2 environmental protection

Because its composition is synthetic, it needs special treatment after use to avoid its pollution to soil and water sources. Its composition is slow to decompose in the natural environment, which may have a certain impact on the ecological balance.

Due to the presence of its bioactive components, pyridaben can be better dispersed in the environment and reduce pollution to soil and water. Therefore, it is more superior in environmental protection and is the future development direction of acaricide.


4. Problem Core: Summary and Suggestions

There were significant differences in composition, use scenario, efficacy and environmental protection between the two groups. Mite removal is suitable for places where strict control of indoor mites is required, while pyridaben is more suitable for places with higher environmental and cost requirements. If you need to choose a mite remover, it is recommended to choose according to the specific application environment and needs. If you need a more comprehensive acaricidal effect and higher environmental protection, you recommend choose pyridaben.
