Application Instructions
1. Early Stage & Root Zone Application
Apply early in crop establishment or at the onset of pest activity. For soil-borne pests and termites in crops like sugarcane, direct applications appropriately toward the root zone or soil surface.
2. Foliar Coverage & Monitoring
Ensure uniform spray coverage across the crop foliage for chewing pests like stem borers and bollworms. Spray before severe damage develops based on regular field monitoring.
Safety & Environmental Care
Always wear proper personal protective equipment (gloves, goggles, mask, overalls) during spray preparation and handling. Highly toxic to aquatic organisms and bees; refrain from spraying during active pollinator activity and prevent chemical runoff into nearby water bodies. Store in a cool, dry place away from food and feed.
