Avatar for Matt Hopkins By Andrea Klosterman Harris|24 July 2008

Hero, a broad-spectrum insect control for fast knockdown and long-lasting residual control, is registered for use against a wide range of pests, including mites, aphids, Japanese beetles, tarnished plant bugs, brown stink bugs, and heliothis species, among others.

“Hero is the new-generation insecticide to help cotton growers minimize insect pressure and protect their cotton acres to increase overall potential yields and profits,” says Adam Prestegord, Hero product manager for FMC. “The faster-acting formula and longer-lasting residual control provides a one-two punch against key cotton pests, including heliothis species, for healthier plant fruit and improved cotton stands each season.”
