Mainspring is a broad-spectrum insecticide controlling thrips and caterpillars in an effective way. Enabling you to manage resistance, Mainspring integrates well with your programme of other insecticides.
Mainspring is the brand new broad-spectrum insecticide based on the active substance cyantraniliprole, belonging to the chemical group the diamides. It has a unique mode of action and contributes to an important part of managing resistance in your crop. Thanks to the translaminar effect, it is possible to fight pests in hard-to-reach places and fits into your integrated pest management system.
The active substance is readily absorbed into the wax layer of the plant. Due to the translaminar nature of Mainspring, insects on the underside of the leaf are also controlled by your applications.
BENEFITS
Thrip Control Mainspring can prevent thrip damage due to its very fast initial effect. Two hours after application they stop feeding and damage to the plant. For faster results, include Attracker Liquid Sugar in your application. Being attracted to the sugars improves the uptake of Mainspring which allows better control.
Caterpillar Control Caterpillars can cause a lot of damage in many ornamental plants. Immediately after Mainspring has been applied, the caterpillar is paralysed and within a few minutes, the damage stops.
