Astro insecticide provides excellent control of borers, beetles, leafhoppers, chinch bugs, cutworms and over 40 other damaging tree and lawn pests—without doing damage to your bottom line. In fact, Astro is one of the most cost-effective tree care products on the market when applied at labeled use rates.

Key Benefits

  • Mode of Action: Sodium Channel Modulator

Use & Control

Astro® insecticide provides excellent control of tree and lawn pests and is a cost-effective, broad-spectrum pest control solution. Astro is one of the most cost-effective tree and lawn care products on the market, when applied at labeled use rates. Formulated with permethrin for quick knockdown and longer residual, Astro provides control long after other insecticides stop working. On trees, Astro insecticide penetrates the bark and doesn't wash away with rainfall or irrigation, ensuring borer and beetle control – including bark beetles, ground beetles and Japanese beetles – with increased staying power. On turf, expect excellent control of chinch bugs and cutworms. More residual means fewer callbacks, which means even more savings for you.

  • Coleopteran Borers
