Monterey Take Down Garden Spray insecticide is an easy-to-use, potent formula that delivers superior performance when it comes to the control of a variety of insects. It contains pyrethrin, a mild insecticide that acts fast, and canola oil, which controls bugs for up to two weeks. It’s ideal for gardeners looking to protect their plants while maintaining a natural approach.
How to Use
Monterey® Take Down Garden Spray is an easy to use product. Here’s what to do for the best results:
- It is best used when pests are first observed. Applying these sprays early will prevent the insects spreading and safeguard the plants from further attack.
- The solution preparation of the concentrate must be diluted in accordance with the labelling directions. Good dilution is essential for that balance of economy and effectiveness.
- A garden sprayer should be used to cover the infected plants with the mixture. Make sure to cover both the tops and bottoms of the leaves because that’s where pests can hide out at various stages.
- Best to apply the spray in early morning or late afternoon, when the weather is still. Do not spray on windy days or the spray may drift to non-target areas.
Types of Pests Controlled
Monterey® Take Down Garden Spray is capable of controlling many common garden pests such as:
- Aphids: Aphids are tiny insects that feed on plant sap, ultimately weakening the plants. Monterey® Take Down Garden Spray is a contact aphid killer that also will protect plants from further invasion.
- Beetles: Beetles can munch on leaves, stems and roots. The pyrethrin in this spray kills beetles on contact, helping to continually rid your garden of these destructive beetles.
