How It Works
Pyrethrins are fast-acting knockdown insecticides with contact, stomach poison and fumigant action.
Piperonyl Butoxide prevents the insect detoxifying pyrethrin and accelerates the rate of knockdown.
Insects are paralysed before dying.
Ingredients
Pyrethrum & piperonyl butoxide
Directions for use
Mix 20ml per litre of water, spray as insects appear and repeat at weekly intervals. Since it is not systemic, spraying underneath foliage is necessary.
Effectiveness
Ineffective if not sprayed under the foliage where insects occur, if incorrect dilution rates are used, or if rain follows shortly after spraying.
NOTE: Pyrethrin is decomposed by sunlight and has no residual effect.
Precautions
Do not apply to young seedlings.
Do not apply to vegetables or fruit trees less than one day before harvest.
