1, Product Description |
Beauveria Bassiana is an entomopathogenic fungus that grows naturally in soil all over the world. Acting as a parasite on various arthropod species, causing white muscardine disease; It widely used as a sprayed biological insecticide to control a great many pests such as bed bugs, termites, thrips, whiteflies, aphids, and different beetles.
Once Beauveria Bassiana infects the host insects, the fungus grows fast inside of the insect’s body. Feeding on the nutrients present in the host’s body and producing toxins continuously.

3, Mechanism |
Beauveria Bassiana is a pathogenic fungus. Applying under suitable environmental conditions, it can be subdivided to produce the spores. After the spores are in contact with pests, they can adhere to the epidermis of the pests. It can dissolve the outer shell of the insect and invade the host body to grow and reproduce.
It will begin to consume lots of nutrients in the body of pests and form a large number of mycelium and spores inside the body of insects. In the meantime, Beauveria Bassiana also can produce toxins such as Bassiana, Bassiana Oosporin, and Oosporin , which disturb the metabolism of the pests and eventually lead to death.
4, Application |
Beauveria bassiana parasitizes a very wide range of arthropod hosts. However, different strains vary in their host ranges, some having rather narrow ranges, like strain Bba 5653 that is very virulent to the larvae of the diamondback moth and kills only few other types of caterpillars. Some strains do have a wide host range and should therefore be considered nonselective biological insecticides. These should not be applied to flowers visited by pollinating insects.
