How It Works: Mode of Action
Primarily stomach action, with contact and translaminar activity.
- Reach the pest: Apply by the label-directed foliar method with appropriate coverage.

- Protect future control: Scout after treatment and rotate suitable modes of action as directed; do not repeat solely by changing brand names.
Use within an integrated pest-management programme. No claim is made that the product is harmless to beneficial insects, resistance-proof or a treatment for viral disease.

Measure product and spray water separately. The manufacturer’s broad dose range is not a recommendation to choose any value for any crop.
*PHI is the waiting period in days between the final application and harvest. Match the crop-specific interval and all other current label restrictions.
No per-litre or per-tank dose, repeat interval, maximum sprays, re-entry period, rainfast time or tank-mix compatibility is invented. Confirm these requirements on the supplied label.
How to Apply: Best Practices
- Match the crop and pest: Identify the pest and check the exact formulation and current label before use.
- Choose the labelled timing: Use the pest stage and crop-stage directions on the pack rather than a routine calendar spray.
- Prepare a measured foliar spray: Follow the crop’s product dose, water volume, mixing order and equipment. Do not assume pesticide or fertiliser compatibility.
- Protect people and surroundings: Observe harvest and entry restrictions; prevent drift and follow label precautions for pollinators, beneficial insects and water bodies.
