It is a suitable option within agricultural pesticide programs, especially in vegetables and crops affected by fruit and leaf quality.
Insecticide for controlling tomato fruit worm and larvae
Tomato fruit worm is among the pests affecting production quality because it can enter the fruits and cause direct damage that is difficult to treat if control is delayed.
Cutworms and leafworms may also weaken the vegetative growth and reduce the plant's ability to grow normally.
Advantage 15% SC helps deal with these pests when sprayed at the right time, especially when eggs or small larvae are observed before they penetrate inside the fruits or plant tissues.
Therefore, it is preferable to use it as part of an integrated control program including early monitoring, pesticide rotation, and avoiding repeated use of the same active ingredient consecutively.

Stops larval feeding after exposure to the insecticide, reducing ongoing damage.
Works with a dual effect through contact and stomach action.
Suitable for controlling tomato fruit worm and potato tuber moth.
The SC formulation is a concentrated liquid, easy to prepare and use.
Suitable for vegetables, field crops, and some fruit trees.
Helps reduce crop losses when used at the beginning of infestation.

Uses of Advantage in vegetables and crops
Advantage 15% SC is used in vegetable crops such as tomatoes, potatoes, peppers, eggplants, and cucumbers to control tomato fruit worm, cutworms, and potato tuber moth.
Its efficiency is better when sprayed early before larvae mature or enter inside the fruits.
It can also be used in field crops like corn, wheat, and clover to control some leafworms, and in fruit trees like grapes, citrus, apples, and almonds to control fruit worms and tunnel makers, according to label recommendations.
To improve coverage during spraying, suitable tools from the sprayers and agricultural spraying equipment section can be used, focusing on new growth, egg-laying sites, and larva areas.

Why choose Advantage 15 SC as part of the larva control program?
Tomato fruit worms and cutworm larvae require early intervention because their damage is often directly on the fruits and leaves, and losses can be hard to reduce if spraying is delayed until larvae enter the fruit.
Advantage 15 SC helps reduce larval feeding when used at the start of infestation.
The 500 ml package is suitable for farms or users needing a practical amount within a specific control program, maintaining the same active ingredient effectiveness when used at the correct dose.
It can be included in a broader program with other agricultural pesticides depending on the pest and crop type.
