Overview
About this product
Dimilin 480 is an insecticide with diflubenzuron, 480 g/L in a suspension concentrate. Diflubenzuron belongs to the insect growth regulators: it disrupts chitin formation in the cuticle, and the larva cannot moult into the next instar.
Treatment is carried out before egg laying begins, and to control larvae the product is applied to caterpillars at the 1st–2nd instar. Maize is sprayed against European corn borer, beet webworm and cotton bollworm, apple against fruit moths, leaf-mining moths and leafrollers, cabbage against noctuid moths, cabbage whites and moths, sunflower against noctuid moths and pyralid moths, soybean against noctuid moths.
The rate is 0.35–0.5 l/ha. 1 l bottle.
