Instructions for the use of Nemabact and the effect of the biological product
Nemabakt is a new, environmentally friendly biological insecticide from Biomethodica, which contains entomopathogenic nematodes. Instructions for the use of Nemabakt recommends using a biological preparation to combat Colorado beetles, May beetle larvae, weevils and other pests of garden plants.
How Nemabact works
After application of the drug, nematodes settle in the soil and penetrate into insect pests. Worms actively reproduce in insects and feed on them, leaving only an empty shell. After that, the nematodes go in search of a new "victim", attacking another insect.
Instructions for use Nemabact recommends using it to combat such pests:
- cricket;
- gadfly;
- thrips;
- locusts;
- plum and apple moth;
- bear;
- more than 300 species of weevils;
- wireworm;
- furrowed squid;
- leaf roll;
- Colorado beetle;
- currant glass jar;
- cucumber gnat;
- onion and carrot fly;
- cabbage, miner and sea buckthorn fly.
Active reproduction of nematodes on the site for several years protects it from insect pests. In winter, roundworms hibernate, and in spring they continue their vital activity.
The benefits and harms of Nemabact
Before using a biological preparation for pest control of horticultural crops, it is necessary to take into account the benefits and harms of Nemabact with a nematode.
The main advantages of the tool:
- Environmental safety - Nemabakt does not carry any harm to humans, animals, bees, fish and beneficial insects.
- Long-term action - even with a complete lack of nutrition, nematodes can live up to 24 months.
- The biological product has a selective effect, affecting only insect pests.
- The drug is active against both adults and insect larvae.
- The bioinsecticide ensures the preservation of a rich crop without the harmful effects of chemicals and damage to the environment.
- Nemabakt has a fast action, ensuring the death of insects at an early stage of development and preventing them from turning into adults.
Bioinsecticide Nemabact has practically no drawbacks. The only drawback is the difficult conditions of transportation and storage of the drug. The product must be transported very carefully, avoiding shaking.
The air temperature during transportation of Nemabakt should not exceed 27-28 ° C. After transportation, it must be left for 8 hours.
In the instructions for use for Nemabact, it is recommended to store the drug at a temperature not lower than + 2 ° C and not higher than + 8 ° C, away from direct sunlight.
The disadvantages of a biological product include the lack of impact on crawling and flying pests. If used improperly, an overly concentrated Nemabact solution causes a decrease in the population of earthworms and other beneficial insects.
Instructions for the use of Nemabact for different cultures
The drug Nemabakt, the instructions for the use of which are in each package, is used by the method of introduction into the soil when planting seedlings or when watering, irrigating or spraying garden, ornamental and garden crops.
Before use, the drug must be diluted in water warmed to room temperature. One pack of bioinsecticide is intended for dilution in a 10 liter bucket of water, which is used to treat a 100 m² area.
How to use Nemabact for various crops:
- Seedlings of flower and vegetable crops - the drug is used during planting of planting material. Consumption of working solution is 3-4 liters per 100 m². Effective against pests living in the ground (bears, beetle larvae, wireworms).
- Gooseberries, raspberries, red and black currants, others fruit bushes - apply 4-6 liters of mortar for every 100 m² of the site. To protect against soil-dwelling pests, before planting, the roots of the seedlings must be placed in sand moistened with a Nemabact solution for 3 days.
- Ornamental and flower plants - watered with Nemabakt solution at the rate of 4-5 liters per 100 m².
The processing of garden and garden plants should be carried out in the early morning or late evening, without access to sunlight. Sufficient air humidity is very important to ensure the active life of the nematodes. Therefore, rainy, cloudy weather will be the best option for processing.
Watering crops should be very careful, making sure that the working solution does not get on the foliage or tops. This will help preserve the maximum number of biologically active microorganisms and nematodes. To obtain the best effect after 30-40 minutes, it is necessary to re-treat the plants.
Special instructions for use
When using the biological drug Nemabakt, it must be borne in mind that it contains live microorganisms that die under adverse conditions. In the event of a cold snap or a sharp onset of freezing, beneficial bacteria die. They also quickly die when the working solution is introduced into solid, dry soil.
Nemabact solution should be used immediately after preparation. As a result of a lack of oxygen, the nematodes sink to the bottom of the liquid and quickly die, therefore, the diluted preparation cannot be stored.
An open package with a biological product should not be stored under open direct rays, next to other industrial insecticides and fertilizers.
Nemabakt is an effective and safe biological product that reliably protects garden, vegetable and ornamental plants from a variety of insect pests. The drug allows you to maintain a generous harvest without any harm to people and the environment.
