Meeting the Needs of Modern Growers
At 7 Worlds Ag, we understand that growers need products that are effective, reliable, and balanced with the needs of the environment. That’s where Iceman 240SC Insecticide comes in, a broad-spectrum solution designed to protect crops from damaging pests, support yield maximisation, and safeguard beneficial species that play a vital role in sustainable horticulture.
With its fast knockdown action, low odour formulation, and short harvest withholding period, Iceman gives growers the confidence to manage pests effectively without compromising crop quality or long-term sustainability.
What Does Iceman Do?
Iceman 240SC is formulated with 240 g/L Tau-fluvalinate, a pyrethroid insecticide that delivers rapid control of key pests. By targeting harmful insects quickly and efficiently, Iceman helps growers maintain the health and productivity of their crops.
This product is designed for use across ornamentals and certain fruit and vegetable crops, ensuring flexibility across different growing systems.
Targeted Pest Control
Pests can cause significant damage to yield and crop quality if left unmanaged. Iceman tackles some of the most challenging insect threats, including:
- Apple Dimpling Bug
- Plague Thrips (in apples and cherries)
- Native Budworm
- Cabbage Moth
- Two Spotted Mite
- Tomato Grub
By controlling these pests effectively, Iceman supports stronger harvests and healthier plants.
(Refer to the product label for the full list of crops and insects controlled.)
Supporting Beneficial Species
A key strength of Iceman is its low hazard profile to many beneficial insects, including:
- Honey bees (good agricultural practice still recommends applying when bees are not actively foraging.)
- Wasp and beetle species
- Lady beetles
- Lacewings
- Hoverflies
While Tau-fluvalinate is toxic to certain specifies of beneficial arthropods such as predatory mites, Iceman generally allows beneficial insect populations to thrive alongside crop protection programs, making it a smart choice for integrated pest management.
Practical Advantages for Growers
Beyond its effectiveness in the field, Iceman offers practical benefits that matter to growers, such as:
- Short Harvest Withholding Period | Reducing disruption at critical harvest times.
- 1L Pack Size | Easy to handle and suitable for both small and larger operations.
- Low Odour Formulation | More pleasant to apply.
Stock for the 2025 season is packaged in cartons of 10 x 1L bottles
Health & Safety Considerations
As with all crop protection products, safe handling is essential. Iceman is classified as an S6 poison (moderately toxic), and precautions should be followed to protect skin, lungs, and overall health. Always consult the Safety Data Sheet (SDS) and product label before use and ensure recommended PPE is worn.
