Beauveria bassiana
CAS NO: 63428-82-0
Introduction:
Beauveria bassiana is a fungus that grows naturally in soils throughout the world and acts as a parasite on various arthropod species, causing white muscardine disease; it thus belongs to the entomopathogenic fungi.
Beauveria bassiana spores simply need to come in contact with a host. Once the host insect is infected, the fungus rapidly grows inside of the insect, feeding on the nutrients present in the host's body and producing toxins in the process. When the host dies, it covers the carcass in a layer of white mold that produces more infective spores. A major advantage to using Beauveria bassiana is the fact it can be used up until the day of harvest as the residue is not harmful to consumers.

Used as a biological insecticide to control a number of pests such as termites, thrips, whiteflies, aphids and different beetles.
