Mode of Action
How It Works
See exactly how Verticide targets pests in 3 simple steps.
Spore attachment
Verticillium lecanii spores attach to the pest's outer cuticle upon contact.
Internal colonization
Spores germinate and penetrate the cuticle, colonizing the pest's body from within.
Pest mortality
The fungus consumes internal tissue, causing death within 3–7 days and further spore spread.
