The product combines rapid systemic effect inside the plant and contact effect on surface pests, making it suitable for mixed infestations including aphids, whiteflies, leafhoppers, tunnel makers, and spiders. Proplex works by weakening insect and spider activity quickly after spraying when used according to the recommended dose, helping to protect the green parts from damage caused by sap absorption or feeding on leaf tissues. It is a suitable option within integrated pest management programs, especially when a pesticide that combines control of sucking insects and spiders in one treatment is needed.

Uses of Proplex in agricultural crops: Proplex 16.9% SC is used to control a range of pests affecting vegetables, potatoes, and fruit trees. Its importance is highlighted in cases where sucking insects coincide with spiders or tunnel makers, providing a suitable combined formulation to address multiple pests within the same spraying program. Main uses include: - Controlling aphids in vegetable crops. - Reducing whitefly populations during active infestations. - Controlling spiders and mites in sensitive crops. - Reducing damage caused by tunnel makers on leaves. - Controlling leafhoppers in certain crops. - Used within integrated pest management programs when mixed infestations are present. - Supporting healthy green parts by reducing damage from sucking pests. To ensure better spray solution distribution on leaves, select appropriate equipment from the pesticides spray and pump section or use a suitable sprayer for small areas from the manual agricultural sprayers section. Method of use of Proplex 16.9% SC depending on the crop: Proplex is used as a foliar spray, with full coverage of the plant, especially the underside of leaves and areas of new growth where sucking insects and spiders gather. Shake the container well before use, then add the required amount to the spray tank with good stirring until the solution is homogeneous. Recommended dosages: - Vegetables such as tomatoes, cucumbers, peppers, and eggplants: 0.5 ml per 1 liter of water to control aphids, whiteflies, thrips, spiders, and tunnel makers. - Potatoes: 0.5 to 0.75 ml per 1 liter of water to control aphids, leafhoppers, and spiders. - Fruit trees such as citrus and grapes: 0.75 ml per 1 liter of water to control sucking insects and spiders. Important instructions during spraying: - Spray until the plant is fully covered from top to bottom. - Repeat spraying as needed with a 10 to 14-day interval depending on infestation severity. - Do not spray during high temperatures or strong wind conditions. - Preferably spray early in the morning or late afternoon. - Do not mix the product arbitrarily with other pesticides without verifying compatibility. - Follow the recommended dose and do not increase concentration without technical advice. Important warnings when using Proplex: - Read the entire product label before use. - Use gloves, mask, goggles, and protective clothing during preparation and spraying. - Avoid contact with skin or eyes. - Do not spray near water sources or during bee activity. - Keep away from children, animals, food, and feed. - Do not reuse empty containers for other purposes. - Do not repeatedly use Proplex alone; it is better to rotate with pesticides from different groups to reduce resistance risk. - In severe or recurring infestations, consult an agricultural specialist to determine an appropriate control program. Importance of the dual formulation in Proplex: Proplex’s value lies in combining two active substances with different modes of action, helping to manage multiple pests simultaneously. Sucking insects like aphids and whiteflies often need a pesticide capable of reaching their feeding sites, while spiders and tunnel makers require precise coverage and effective impact on their hiding spots. Therefore, Proplex can be used in pest control programs when infestations are mixed or when multiple problems appear on the same crop. However, rotating pesticides and avoiding repeated reliance on the same active ingredient is crucial to maintain efficacy and reduce resistance development. Difference between controlling sucking insects and spiders: Sucking insects like aphids and whiteflies feed on plant sap, potentially causing overall growth weakness, yellowing of leaves, deformities in new growth, or honeydew excretions that attract surface fungi. Early monitoring is necessary before populations increase. Spiders and mites often cause spotting, yellowing, or a dull appearance on leaves, and can spread rapidly in dry, hot conditions. Good integrated control, continuous monitoring, and improving plant conditions help reduce damage and maintain crop quality.
