Art of Use
Mite Control – Indoor Environment
Our preferred situation is to use Grandevo WDG when mite populations are low and then keeping them at a low level.
- Be sure to use an adjuvant to maximize coverage of Grandevo WDG.
- For mite control 3 lbs./100 gallons of water should be your minimum dilution.
- Grandevo WDG is fairly slow acting and it can take 2-3 applications on a 7 day interval before you see the population in noticeable decline.
The following best use practices should be kept in mind to effectively use Grandevo WDG:
- Make two consecutive applications and apply early.
- Avoid excessive water volume.
- Maintain spray solution pH at 7 and a tank mix with a buffering agent is recommended.
- When populations are high and/or eggs are present, tank-mix or alternate with a contact insecticide (miticide).
- Apply the knock-down insecticide first. Although repellency and feeding cessation occur within moments of application, it may take up to 7 days to observe the full effects of Grandevo WDG on certain pests.
- In some cases, dead carcasses may not be observed as pests will fall off the plants or migrate out of field.
