Working to protect and treat vulnerable palm trees with Syngenta TreeCare

We're working with growers at the community and national level to help prevent the destruction of date palms from red palm weevil.

Classification and Security

ARETOR is an insecticide for use as tree micro-injection (TMI)  in palm trees for the control of mainly Red Palm Weevil (Rhynchophorus ferrugineus) which is a dangerous deadly pest in date palm, coconut palm and ornamental palms.

For use only as tree micro-injection (TMI) product. ARETOR also controls emerald ash borer and other arthropod pests on broad leaf (e.g. leaf miner on horse chestnut) and  coniferous trees, and nematodes in pine trees. 

Do not use as a spray or soil treatment. ARETOR® should be applied using specialized Syngenta tree micro injection equipment. Do not use against pests resistant to avermectins/milbemycins (IRAQ group 6: Chloride channel activators).
