CYD-X® HP contains Cydia pomonella granulovirus, or CpGV, naturally microencapsulated within protein occlusion bodies (OB). OBs must be ingested by a codling moth larva to be effective. The highly alkaline environment of the larval digestive tract dissolves the OB, releasing the virus to infect the cells lining the larval gut.
