Tetrino now available for sale in California

The Turf and Ornamentals business of Bayer announced Tetrino, an insecticide featuring the active ingredient tetraniliprole, is now available for purchase in California. Tetrino controls white grub, bluegrass billbugs, fall armyworm and more with one solution.

“With the availability of Tetrino, superintendents and lawn care operators in California now have one solution with flexible application timing to control the toughest, turf-damaging insects,” said Dr. Zac Reicher, technical service turfgrass manager, West Region of the Bayer U.S. Turf & Ornamentals business. “Other options for managing these pests require multiple products and strict application windows. With Tetrino, superintendents and lawn care operators will improve their turf management game and have more freedom and time to devote to other projects.”

Tetrino is designed to make control as easy as possible. In addition to flexible application timing, superintendents and lawn care operators can incorporate it into other management programs for treating pests like chinch bugs, caterpillars and billbugs. Absorbed through the roots and shoots of the turf, tetraniliprole causes immediate cessation of insect feeding following exposure for fast results.

“There is no other product on the market like Tetrino, so we are thrilled it is now available in California,” said Doug Clark, area sales manager, West Region of U.S. Turf & Ornamentals. “The product solves a longstanding problem and is something every superintendent and lawn care operator should use to help achieve their best.”

Bayer also announced it is providing superintendents and lawn care operators with a special offer as part of the NOW Solutions program through Sept. 30.
