MODE OF USE AND TIMING:

It is quite important to use MENUET at the right dosage to obtain the best result. As it solves immediately in water, it can be used with all type of equipment and devices for disinfestation. As MENUET is efficient through stomach and contact, it is necessary to pay attention to coat all the surface of the plant during application. The disinfestation against vineyard thrips must be done in the spring, when buds break, when first leaves appear and when the concentration of pest population reaches 2-3 thrips by leave.

For grape moth control in vineyard, the disinfestation must be made according to the system of alert estimation. For application of larvicide, the number of butterflies caught in the traps must begin to fall after reaching a pic. The effective temperature must be upon 15°C and up during two consecutive days in the late afternoon for a total of 120 days/degree in the first generation, and this situation must go on in the following days. Total effective temperatures for the 2^nd generation must reach 520 day/degree, 1047 days/degree for the third generation, in phenology of the vineyard, the first disinfestation has to be made when the first larvae are observed at the bud stage. The second application should be made when the grapes are green and the third application when the grapes begin to get sweet. The disinfestation should be decided at the apparition of the first born larvae. Disinfestation must be done at every disinfestation.

In the peach moth control, disinfestation must be made as soon as the first larva damage in the fruit is observed or 10 days after the first adult start is seen.

For hazelnut worm control, disinfestation will be made when the diameter of the nuts are 3-4 mm large.  

For tomato moth control, disinfestation must be made when first adults are observed in the traps, according to the dimensions of the area, by seeking eggs and larvae in the flowers, leaves, sprouts and stalks in minimum 100 plants. The disinfestation should be made when it is observed that 3 plants from 100 plants are contaminated with larvae and eggs. Control after disinfestation must be made 5-6 days after the application and if necessary, application should be repeated.

RESISTANCE MANAGEMENT:

MENUET Crop Protection Plant product is an insecticide classed Group 5 according to its mechanism of action. Repeated applications of the same group of crop protection insecticides lead to resistance development. For this reason, do not exceed the number of recommended applications of MENUET during the same season in order to avoid resistance development. In case applications need to be repeated, pay attention to use crop protection products with a different mechanism of action (apart from those of Group 5).
