General instructions

Application method:
• Air Pressure Dispensing System
-
Application conditions:
•The 250 g package allows for depositing in about 100 "diffusion points" in the field. The recommended diffusion points are 50/ha. The 'diffusion points' should be evenly distributed in the vineyard. At the boundaries of the plot it is recommended that the 'diffusion points' are doubled in order to increase the concentration of pheromone.
• Recommended with applications at 50 diffusion points/ha. The diffusion points are evenly distributed in the field. It is recommended to place more diffusion points at the field boundaries, namely 12,5 g/ha of additional product (5 diffusion points).
• In fields with a history of high population pressure or where unacceptable infestations occur, make supplemental applications with appropriate insecticides or other control methods.
