Tuta Force Systemic Insecticide (Jubaili) | 20g Sachet

Description

Tuta Force Systemic Insecticide (Jubaili) | 20g Sachet is a highly effective systemic insecticide specifically formulated to combat one of the most destructive pests of tomato crops: the Tomato Leafminer (Tuta absoluta). This 20g water-soluble sachet contains a powerful active ingredient that is absorbed by the plant, providing internal protection from the inside out. It is designed for use in tomatoes and other susceptible crops, offering reliable control by targeting the pest at multiple life stages.

Features & Characteristics of Tuta Force Systemic Insecticide (Jubaili) | 20g Sachet:

• Active Ingredient: Typically contains a neonicotinoid (e.g., Acetamiprid) or another systemic compound like Cyantraniliprole. Always check the product label for the exact active ingredient and concentration.

• Target Pest: Primarily for the control of Tomato Leafminer (Tuta absoluta). It is also effective against other sucking and chewing pests such as whiteflies, aphids, and thrips.

• Mode of Action: Systemic and Contact.

  • Systemic: The insecticide is absorbed by the plant’s roots and leaves and moves throughout the vascular system.

  • Contact: Also kills pests on direct contact.

• How it Works: When a pest like Tuta absoluta larvae mines into the leaf or fruit, it ingests the insecticide and is killed. This “inside-out” action makes it highly effective against hidden or boring insects that other sprays cannot reach.

• Formulation: Water-soluble powder or granules, packaged in a convenient, pre-measured 20g sachet for easy mixing and to minimize handler exposure.

How to Use: Application & Mixing Process of Tuta Force Systemic Insecticide (Jubaili) | 20g Sachet:

CRITICAL: This is a chemical pesticide. Read the entire product label on the sachet before use. The information below is a general guideline and must not replace the manufacturer’s specific instructions.

1. Dosage and Mixing

• Dosage: A single 20g sachet is typically designed to be diluted in a standard volume of water, such as 16-20 liters (approx. 4-5 gallons). Always confirm this on the label.

• Mixing Instructions:

  1. Wear appropriate Personal Protective Equipment (PPE – see below).

  2. Fill the spray tank halfway with clean water.

  3. Open the sachet and add the entire contents to the tank.

  4. Agitate or stir thoroughly to ensure the powder is completely dissolved.

  5. Top up the tank with the remaining water and mix again.

2. Application Methods & Timing

• Primary Method: Foliar Spray.

  • Coverage: Ensure thorough coverage of all plant parts, especially the undersides of leaves where pests often lay eggs and hide.

  • Sprayer: Use a knapsack sprayer or other appropriate equipment with a fine nozzle for even coverage.

• Timing:

  • Curative Control: Apply at the first sign of Tuta absoluta damage (visible mines, pinprick holes, frass).

  • Preventive Control: In areas with high pest pressure, applications may begin early in the season as a preventive measure, following label directions for frequency.

  • Best Time to Spray: Early morning or late afternoon to avoid bright sun, which can cause rapid evaporation and potential leaf burn.

When and What to Use It On:

• Primary Crop: Tomatoes (both open field and greenhouse).

Outcomes and Effectiveness:

• What to Expect:

  • Rapid Cessation of Damage: You should see a stop to the formation of new leaf mines and fruit damage within a few days.

  • Long-Lasting Protection: The systemic activity provides residual protection for 1-2 weeks or more, depending on conditions.
