Advanced Biocontrol for Fungus Gnats and Western Flower Thrips in Greenhouse Growing Operations

Storage: Upon receipt of product, remove from shipping packaging and use immediately or store in a refrigerator at 40 ºF (5 ºC). DO NOT FREEZE. Ensure good air circulation around each tray. Do not use if past expiration date or incorrectly stored

The initial drench application of Nemasys should be applied to the soil or growing media for control of soil-dwelling WFT early in the growth cycle, whereas subsequent applications of Nemasys should be made as foliar sprays to target foliar-dwelling WFT. For best results with foliar sprays to target WFT: • Apply Nemasys in the evening when pest activity is low. • Use of an approved spray adjutant will promote improved application uniformity and allow nematodes to reach the pest more effectively. • Ensure that the crop remains wet for at least 2 hours following application by closing windows and ventilation. • Do not apply in direct sunlight. Use blackout curtains during and for at least 2 hours after application. If using artificial lighting, switch off during and for at least 2 hours after application.
