Product information
Vertimec 1.8% EC is an acaricide-insecticide to combat pests in vegetable and fruit crops. The product combats insecticide-resistant insecticides in the pyrethroid or organophosphorus group.
Action mode:
Vertimec 1.8% EC quickly penetrates the leaves (translaminar effect) and forms an active deposit that provides pest control over a long period of time. It acts mainly by ingestion and destroys the pests that feed on the treated parts of the plant. Combats the mobile forms of mites and fleas (adults and larvae) but has no ovicidal effect.
After treatment with Vertimec 1.8% EC, the pests paralyze immediately, but the maximum mortality is reached within 3-5 days. Vertimec 1.8% EC is approved in most countries with tradition in vegetable and fruit culture.
Usage:
For vegetables and ornamental plants, do not apply at intervals of less than 7 days. Vertimec 1,8% EC has no shock and therefore, in order to obtain optimal results in pest control, it is recommended to perform preventive treatments at the beginning of the infestation in order to avoid any loss of harvest.
It is recommended to use mixed mineral oil at a dose of 0.25% (250 ml / 100 l water) to improve plant penetration and uniformity of treatment, leading to increased efficacy and shelf-life.
Dosage varies according to the treated plant (see label).
