Let's consider the composition and release form of the Borey insecticide, its purpose and mechanism of action, how to use it according to the instructions, how to work, taking into account precautions. What can be combined with, how to store, what can be replaced.
Composition and release form of the product
This insecticide is produced by the well-known company “August” in the form of a suspension concentrate. The pesticide contains 2 active substances: imidacloprid in an amount of 150 g per 1 liter and lambda-cyhalothrin in an amount of 50 g per liter. The drug is available in 1 liter bottles.
Purpose of the drug
Destroys sucking and leaf-eating harmful insects, including secretive ones. Effective against insects resistant to pyrethroid insecticides and FOS. Acts quickly and has long-lasting protection. A drug with a systemic effect, it affects pests by contact and intestinal type. Resistant to prolonged sunlight and elevated temperatures.
"Borey" is intended for use on main agricultural crops, as well as in areas where locusts have appeared.
Mechanism of operation
Imidacloprid, from the class of neonicotinoids, has systemic activity; the substance penetrates through leaf and stem surfaces and through roots, affects the central nervous system of pests, blocking the functioning of nerve fibers. Lambda-cyhalothrin, from the class of synthetic pyrethroids, remains on the leaf surface, but is effective not only against insects, but also against phytophagous mites.
“Borey” inhibits the transmission of nerve impulses, insects are destroyed both when the solution comes into contact with them, and as a result of eating the sprayed plants. Double action allows the product to confidently destroy insects that are located on the lower surface of foliage and in hard-to-reach places.
