Combi-protec®

Fruit, Top Fruit

Adjuvant for tank mixing with insecticides against adult fly pests such as spotted-wing drosophila (SWD, Drosophila suzukii).

When present in insectiocide spray droplets, combi-protec stimulates and prolongs adult fly feeding. Increased feeding increases the oral uptake of insecticide reducing time between insecticide exposure and insect death.

Increasing the speed of SWD mortality reduces the time available to mate and lay eggs once the adult SWD have ented the crop area. Reducing pest egg laying reduces crop damage.

Approved adjuvant for increasing the efficacy of insecticides against spotted-wing drosophila (SWD, Drosophila suzukii), a fly pest of many fruits.

combi-protec is an approved adjuvant in the UK. Always read the label before use.

Store combi-protec under ambient conditions out of direct sunlight.

Add combi-protec (ratio1:1), stir immediately.
Add insecticide partner.
Add to spray tank with remaining water.
