Spray in sunlight. Diafenthiuron becomes active in light.
Why farmers use Pegasus
- ✓Controls all stages of whiteflies, plus mites, in one spray.
- ✓Works by contact, by stomach action and as a vapour, so it reaches hidden pests.
- ✓A different mode of action, useful against pests that resist neonicotinoids and pyrethroids.
- ✓Also acts as a miticide, so you may not need a separate mite spray.
