Comite controls immature and adult spider mites. It works via contact activity. It is not translaminar or systemic, so complete coverage is essential. Adjust the spray solution pH to 7 or lower. Use spreader/sticker adjuvant to improve coverage, but don’t use penetrating surfactants. Don’t tank mix with mineral oils/petroleum distillates or with alkaline materials such as lime and lime sulfur. Apply by ground or air with enough water to obtain thorough coverage. Chemigate using 0.1 to 0.2-inch water. The minimum treatment interval is 21 days, except in WA and OR where repeat treatment is allowed after 14 days (see 24c OR-200010). Similar products containing proparagite are available but use rates may vary.  Comite is a restricted use pesticide with "Danger/Poison" warning and handling concerns.
