Sequoia® insecticide is an insect control product for many fruit and vegetable crops. It contains the active ingredient sulfoxaflor, a member of the sulfoximine class of chemistry. Sequoia provides fast-acting and consistent control of sap-feeding pests, including aphids, whiteflies, mealybugs, leafhoppers, plant bugs and psyllids. No disruption of key beneficials or mite flaring results from application of Sequoia.

Sulfoxaflor is the first insecticide to be commercialized from the new sulfoximine class of chemistry. Sulfoxaflor exhibits complex and unique interactions with insect nicotinic acetylcholine receptors. It is not a neonicotinoid. Sulfoxaflor has been designated as the sole member of the new Subgroup 4C by the Insecticide Resistance Action Committee (IRAC).
Tolerance for Sequoia is very high for fruit and vegetable crops that have been tested. There has been no observed negative effect on seedling emergence nor vegetative vigor. Field trials were conducted on a variety of crops over a wide range of environmental conditions.
Dozens of field trials done in commercial fields and in greenhouses have shown that Sequoia has minimal impact on key beneficial insects, including assassin bugs, lacewings, ladybugs and minute pirate bugs. Additionally, Sequoia has no negative impact on beneficial mite species.
