Emamectin Benzoate is a highly efficient, low-toxic, low-residue, pollution-free biological pesticide. It has a broad insecticidal spectrum, a long duration of effect, and has a good control effect on a variety of pests and mites.
1. Characteristics of Emamectin Benzoate
(1) Long validity period
Emamectin Benzoate mainly has contact and stomach poisoning effects. When the agent enters the insect's body, it can enhance the function of the insect's nerves, disrupt nerve conduction, and cause irreversible paralysis. The larvae will stop eating immediately after contact, and reach the highest fatality rate within 3-4 days. After emamectin benzoate is absorbed by crops, it can remain in the plant for a long time without losing its effectiveness. After being eaten by pests, a second insecticidal peak occurs 10 days later. Therefore, emamectin benzoate has a longer duration.
(2) High activity and good safety
Compared with abamectin, Emamectin Benzoate has firstly improved its insecticidal activity by three orders of magnitude. It is extremely active against lepidopteran larvae and many other pests, and has both stomach poisoning and contact killing effects. It has a very good effect at a very low dose and does not harm beneficial insects in the process of pest control. It is conducive to comprehensive pest control. In addition, it expands the insecticidal spectrum and reduces the toxicity to humans and animals.
2. Emamectin Benzoate application tips
(1) Mixed use matters. Although there are many chemicals that can be mixed with Emamectin Benzoate, I hope everyone must remember that Emamectin Benzoate must not be mixed with chlorothalonil, mancozeb, mancozeb and other fungicides. Because Emamectin Benzoate is a biological agent, it will affect the efficacy of Emamectin Benzoate.
(2) Pesticide matters. After Emamectin Benzoate is sprayed on the leaves, it will decompose quickly under the action of strong ultraviolet light. At the same time, when Emamectin Benzoate is used at temperatures below 22 degrees, the insecticidal activity is not too strong. (Because the insecticidal activity of Emamectin Benzoate increases with temperature, when it reaches 25 degrees, its insecticidal activity can even increase 1,000 times.)
3. Special reminder
Emamectin Benzoate is not recommended for use during flowering of crops as it is toxic to bees. In short, Emamectin Benzoate is about to reach its peak period of use. We must be very clear about the mixing situation and control targets of Emamectin Benzoate. Only in this way can we quickly prevent pests.
Although Emamectin Benzoate has a broad insecticidal spectrum, long lasting effect, and good safety, there is one shortcoming that cannot be ignored, that is, Emamectin Benzoate has poor quick effect. Pests such as lepidoptera are highly resistant to pesticides. Generally, pests can be killed only 3 to 4 days after pesticide application. Many farmers mistakenly believe that the pesticide effect is not good. In fact, you only need to add one medicine, and the quick-acting effect will be immediately improved and the duration of effect will be longer. This medicine is flubendiamide.
Flubendimid has stomach poisoning and contact effects, and is non-systemic. It is a highly efficient and broad-spectrum insecticide. It is also very toxic to bees and aquatic organisms, and has no significant impact on beneficial insects at normal dosages. In addition, flubendiamide has very good activity against all lepidopteran pests, and can effectively control adults and larvae of lepidopteran pests. It is especially effective against larvae, with fast action and long lasting effect.
4. It is specially used to kill eggs and larvae, and grasp the critical period of prevention and control.
Lufenuron is the latest generation to replace urea insecticides. The agent kills pests by acting on insect larvae and preventing the peeling process. It is especially effective against leaf-eating caterpillars such as fruit trees. It also has a unique killing mechanism against thrips, rust mites and whiteflies. Suitable for controlling pests resistant to synthetic pyrethroids and organophosphorus pesticides. The long-lasting effect of the agent is beneficial to reducing the number of sprays and reducing the development of resistance.
