Primebest2

PREV-AM has been proven as an effective control for a wide spectrum of insects, mites and fungi. This powerful contact pesticide can be used alone for quick knockdown or tank mixed with other pesticides as a part of your resistance management program.

Primebest2 is the crop-friendly 3-in-1 pesticide that is ideal for use throughout the season for treatment of sudden outbreaks, population explosions and as a pre-harvest, clean-up spray. With Primebest2 there is no need for additional adjuvants due to the superior wetting and spreading characteristics that allow it to move into hard-to-reach areas and help prevent run-off. Either alone or mixed with other pesticides, Primebest2 delivers control you can count on.

Insects and mites are protected by a water repellent layer that loses its effectiveness when contacted by a Primebest2 application. This allows the active ingredient to penetrate and destroy the soft, living tissues underneath. The insects/mites are then exposed to the loss of body fluids, causing death. Flying insects experience loss of the protective coverings and tension in the wings, making them unable to fly. Additionally, water repellent hairs protecting the flexing points in insects lose their effectiveness, allowing Primebest2 to penetrate into their susceptible body parts, which are then destroyed. On some insects and mites the ultra low surface tension of Primebest2 allows an influx into the respiratory organs, causing internal suffocation.

The Primebest2 solution wets the protective membranes of the superficial fungal mycelia (hyphae) and spores, allowing the active ingredient to penetrate and destroy the living tissues underneath. This exposes the organism to the drying effect of the atmosphere and causes collapse within 2 to 24 hours. Plant tissue damaged by the fungus may also dry out and prevent further spread of infection, but healthy tissue is not affected at the recommended application rate.

Advantages:

• Use Primebest2 250ml per 100L of water
• Direct spray to ensure maximum coverage of the entire plant
• Tank mix with the appropriate residual materials if extended control of target pests is needed
• Use Primebest2 prior to harvest to clean up insect and disease infestations. It delivers quick knockdown and is exempt from Maximum Residue Level (MRL) tolerances
• Always read and follow label directions
