Actarofit 10 g

Biopreparation insecticide Aktarofit 10 g Nzim

The unique biological product is designed to combat all types of pests (thrips, aphids, mites, scoops, leafhoppers, leafhoppers, sawflies, midges, Colorado potato beetle).

Actarophyte – this is a drug created on the basis of a complex of natural avermectins, which are produced by a beneficial soil fungus Streptomyces avermitilis.

Active ingredient: The active ingredient of the drug is a complex of natural avermectins produced by the beneficial soil fungus Streptomyces avermitilis - a complex of avermectins of groups B1 and B2, at a concentration of 0.2%.

Avermectins – these are natural specific neurotoxins that penetrate the body of insects through the intestinal or contact route and irreversibly affect their nervous system.

The main advantages of the drug:

• Stop feeding after 6-8 hours for leaf-eating pests and after 12-16 hours for sucking pests;
• Mass death of pests occurs 2-3 days after treatment, and the maximum effect occurs 5-7 days after treatment;
• The ability of avermectins to rapidly degrade in the environment prevents their accumulation in fruits, vegetables, and soil;
• The duration of the protective effect of the drug is up to 10-20 days.

For the treatment of plants in closed rooms, use a solution of the drug of 3.5-10 ml per 1 liter of water. The first signs of the effect of the drug are observed after 6-8 hours or 12-16 hours, depending on the type of pest. Mass death of pests occurs 2-3 days after processing, the greatest effect is reached on 5-7 days. Under favorable conditions, the protective effect lasts up to 20 days.

The drug quickly decomposes in the environment into harmless components and does not accumulate in fruits, vegetables and soil. Therefore, the drug can be used during the harvest period on vegetable and fruit and berry crops. The last processing can be done 48 hours before harvesting.

Spraying with the drug is recommended to be carried out in dry, clear, windless weather with a low probability of precipitation in the next 8-10 hours. The optimal temperature for applying the drug is +18C and above. Processing at very low temperatures leads to a decrease in the effectiveness of the drug, processing at a temperature of +28C increases its effectiveness even more. At elevated temperatures, the consumption of the drug can be reduced by 25% without reducing its effectiveness. 

It is not recommended to carry out treatment with the drug early in the morning and late in the evening when dew falls, as this reduces the effectiveness of the drug.

In recommended doses, the drug does not harm beneficial insects.

Storage conditions and precautions:

• The drug should be stored in a dry, cool place at a temperature of 0^atC to +30^atC, separately from food and medicine, in places inaccessible to children and animals.
• Storage of the working solution is not allowed.
