What Is Amitraz 12.5% EC?

Amitraz is a formamidine-group insecticide and acaricide with strong activity against mites and ticks. The 12.5% EC formulation contains 12.5% w/v amitraz as active ingredient, dissolved in organic solvents with suitable emulsifiers to form a stable emulsifiable concentrate.

Typical features of amitraz 12.5% EC insecticide and acaricide include:

• Broad activity against many species of mites and ticks

• Strong contact and vapour action on target pests

• Good fit for warm climates and intensive production systems

• Suitable for repacking into multiple OEM small pack sizes for retail distribution

Depending on local regulations and registered labels, amitraz 12.5% EC may be used on certain crops (for mite control) and/or on animals (for tick and external parasite control) under professional supervision.

Mode of Action of Amitraz

Amitraz 12.5% EC acts primarily on the nervous system of mites and ticks. While details can vary by species, its main mode of action is:

• Interaction with octopamine and alpha-adrenergic receptors in the nervous system of target pests

• Disruption of normal nerve signal transmission

• Causing hyperexcitation, detachment, paralysis and death of mites and ticks

Because of this neurotoxic mode of action, amitraz acaricide is effective both through direct contact with the pest and, under appropriate conditions, through fumigant/vapour action in the treated area. This makes it particularly useful for dense foliage, thick animal coats or environments where ticks and mites may hide in cracks or on the underside of leaves.

Amitraz belongs to a specific chemical group, so many resistance-management guidelines recommend rotating it with other insecticide and acaricide classes as part of an integrated pest management (IPM) strategy, always according to the local label and regulatory guidance.

Target Pests

Depending on the label and local registration, amitraz 12.5% EC is typically used to control:

• Plant-feeding mites (e.g. spider mites) on certain crops

• Ticks and other external parasites on livestock or companion animals (where legally authorised)

• Other sucking or biting ectoparasites as specified on national labels

You should always confirm the approved pest list for amitraz 12.5% EC insecticide and acaricide in your country and position the product accordingly in your portfolio.

Crop and Application Scenarios

Without giving specific doses or application schedules, typical professional scenarios for amitraz 12.5% EC include, where legally registered:

Crop Production (Mites on Crops)

In horticultural and field crops, amitraz insecticide/acaricide may be used by professional spray operators to reduce mite infestations on:

• Fruit trees and vines (e.g. citrus, pome fruit, grapes)

• Vegetables (e.g. tomatoes, peppers, cucurbits, beans)

• Industrial crops (e.g. cotton, coffee, tea)

Amitraz is normally used as part of a broader mite management program that may combine cultural practices, biological control and other chemical groups, following the product label and local agronomic recommendations.

Livestock and Animal Environments (Ticks and External Parasites)

In some markets, amitraz 12.5% EC is registered for use in livestock or animal environments for tick and external parasite control, such as:

• Cattle dips or sprays

• Sheep, goats or other livestock (as permitted)

• Kennels or animal housing environments

In these situations, strict adherence to label instructions, withholding periods and veterinary guidance is essential. Amitraz is not a consumer pet product; it is a professional-use acaricide that must be applied only as legally authorised.

Key Benefits

Strong Acaricidal Performance

Amitraz 12.5% EC offers strong activity against many mite and tick species, providing quick knock-down and effective control when used according to the label. This allows distributors and professional users to position amitraz as a dependable solution in markets with high ectoparasite pressure.

Emulsifiable Concentrate for Flexible Programs

The EC formulation is compatible with standard spraying equipment and, where permitted, dipping or wash systems. It can be integrated into existing mite and tick control programs and, when alternated with other active ingredients, can help maintain control performance in challenging environments.

Suitable for Warm and Humid Climates

Amitraz performs particularly well in warm, humid regions where tick and mite populations can build up quickly. This makes amitraz 12.5% EC attractive for markets in the Middle East, Africa, Latin America and parts of Asia.

OEM and Brand-Building Potential

Because it is a recognised active ingredient in many markets, amitraz 12.5% EC for sale under your own brand—especially in small retail packs—can play a key role in building a visible acaricide/insecticide portfolio in your distribution network.
