Granules to control insects and grubs in lawns and soils.
Benefits
- Curative - Lawns where porina or other soil insect damage is seen. Around the exterior of buildings to provide a barrier on the surface and deep in soil to insects such as ants that would move indoors via the surface or tunnelling.
- Preventative – all lawn areas to be protected from grass grub and other insect damage.
- Improves grass condition.
- Contact insecticide – long lasting
- The active ingredient washes off the granules and stays on surface and in the upper layer of soil.
- Controls insect grubs when they move to the surface to feed.
- Prevents soil insect pests by forming a protective barrier at the soil surface. Controls adult stages during egg laying and pupal emergence.
