Why use Deltamic for acarid and tunnel maker control?
Acarids and tunnel makers are pests that require early intervention, as they can cause gradual damage that is difficult to manage if they spread inside the field or greenhouse.
Spiders affect leaf efficiency, while tunnel makers cause internal tissue damage, and Tetranychus may affect the quality of new growth and flowers.
Using Deltamic 18 EC helps reduce pest pressure when applied at the correct timing and with high coverage quality.
The best results are achieved when the product is part of an integrated program including regular inspection, removing heavily infested leaves when necessary, and improving ventilation inside greenhouses.
