Rules for working with the drug Mospilan
In order for the treatment with the Mospilan insecticide to bring the expected result, you need to remember several important rules for working with an insecticide:
- To prepare the working solution, use only plastic or glass containers. It is undesirable to use aluminum and galvanized containers, since acetamiprid enters into a chemical reaction with these materials.
- To prepare an insecticidal solution, you cannot use cold water - it must be warmed up to 20 ° C.
- Mospilan should be poured into water in small portions, stirring constantly, so that the powder is completely dissolved.
- The prepared solution should be immediately poured into a spray tank and treated with plants. It cannot be stored, as this leads to the loss of insecticidal properties.
- Mospilan can be applied only to the upper part of the foliage - it is quickly absorbed by the plant cells and spreads through its tissues.
- Mospilan is not used in early spring, with a high risk of recurrent frosts.
When treating with an insecticide, weather conditions must be taken into account. Mospilan is ineffective at air temperatures below + 15 ° С and above + 29 ° С. The best option is considered to be a temperature ranging from + 22 ° С to + 27 ° С.
The solution is best done in the evening, after sunset. Do not spray plants in rainy weather, as well as in the case of dew drops on the leaves. This reduces the effectiveness of Mospilan and prevents it from being completely absorbed into the plant tissues.
The manufacturer recommends processing the plantings with Mospilan at any time during the growing season. The insecticide remains effective for up to 20-25 days - this time is quite enough to protect plants from pests until the end of the season.
Mospilan is a new generation fast acting insecticide that is effective against most pests. The drug is used for prophylactic and therapeutic treatment of vegetable, ornamental, agricultural crops and fruit trees.
