How to Use
Capex should be stored in a fridge (≤5°C).
Capex can be applied with standard spray equipment.
For optimum control Capex needs to be applied to target young, overwintering larvae as they emerge. Timing will depend on regional weather conditions.
Application in the morning or evening hours is recommended.
Capex should be applied at 100 ml/ha per treatment. Spray volume should be high enough to give good crop coverage without runoff (200- 1600 L/ha depending on planting density and crop size).
Repeat application after 8 days of full sunshine or 14 days of part sunshine (where 2 partly sunny days equate to 1 day of full sunshine). Applications should be repeated as necessary.
Use pesticides safely, always read the label before use.
