A water-soluble powder systemic, contact and stomach insecticide for the control of insect pests in crops as indicated.

Apple

Features

MAINTAIN 200 SP is a neonicotinoid group insecticide and belongs to IRAC group 4A.
Highly systemic insecticide with a long residual action.
Excellent activity against Lepidoptera, e.g. codling moth.
Acts on central nervous system of insects, leading to paralysis and exhaustion of cellular energy.
Relative low toxicity to bees compared to other neonicotinoids.

Do's & Don'ts

Do not mix with triazole fungicides as bee toxicity is dramatically synergized.
Do not apply as a foliar spray onto crops when honeybees are present.
Prevent drift onto surrounding crops where honeybees may visit flowering plants.
Not compatible with alkaline spray water or products that will create an alkaline spray mixture. Use a registered buffer to adjust pH to 4.2-5.5.
For good resistance management, do not exceed two applications per season.

Usage Rate

Codling moth
50 g/100 ℓ water + registered buffer. * Apply mid-November to mid-December (during the 1st or early 2nd-generation Codling moth) at 10-14-day intervals.

Suppression of woolly aphid
50 g/100 ℓ water + registered buffer.
pests start to migrate upwards into the trees, or when first noticed. Apply a 2nd treatment 2-weeks later. Effective, complete coverage is essential.

Canola

Features

MAINTAIN 200 SP is an IRAC group code 4A insecticide.
MAINTAIN 200 SP controls the cabbage aphid (Brevicoryne brassicae) in canola.
MAINTAIN 200 SP is a systemic insecticide that acts on
the central nervous system of insects through both contact action and ingestion (stomach action).
MAINTAIN 200 SP translocates to the apical meristems in the plant (acropetal movement) protecting the new growth.
Controls the pest even when hidden within the leaves.
Rapid paralysis of the insect stops feeding rapidly and is followed by eventual death.
Good residual activity results in a longer period of effective control.
Low dosage rates required (50g/ha) for effective control.

Do's & Don'ts

Apply at first signs of infestation.
Optimal results obtained if applied when the crops are actively growing.
Do not apply after flowering.
Do not apply on to crops as a foliar spray when honey bees are present.
Do not alternate with insecticides with a similar
mode of action.
Integrate other control methods (chemical, cultural and biological) into insect control program to limit resistance development.
DO NOT mix with triazole fungicides as bee toxicity is dramatically synergized.

MAINTAIN 200 SP also controls the cabbage aphid (Brevicoryne brassicae) in canola.
MAINTAIN 200 SP is a systemic insecticide that acts on the central nervous system of insects through both contact action and ingestion (stomach action).

Rapid paralysis of the insect stops feeding rapidly and is followed by eventual death.
Good residual activity results in a longer period of effective control.
Low dosage rates required (50g/ha) for effective control.

Do's & Don'ts

Apply at first signs of infestation.
Optimal results obtained if applied when the crops are actively growing.
Ensure that application is complete before a dense crop canopy is formed (before stem elongation: GS30) stage.
Do not apply later than ear emergence in wheat and barley and not after flowering in canola.
Do not apply on to crops as a foliar spray when honey bees are present.
Do not alternate with insecticides with a similar mode of action (e.g. Imidacloprid).
To minimize development of resistance do not exceed two (2) applications per season.
Integrate other control methods (chemical, cultural and biological) into insect control program to limit resistance development.
DO NOT mix with triazole fungicides as bee toxicity is dramatically synergized.

Short persistence on leaf surface.
Contact, translaminar and systemic action.
Triple action: ovicidal, adulticidal and larvicidal.
Low acute toxicity to bees.
Quick knockdown effect.
Long residual effect against thrips.

Do's & Don'ts

Regular scouting is extremely important to determine the pest status.
Use MAINTAIN 200 SP in a tank mix with VILLA 51 to improve wetting and contact with waxy leaf and fruit surfaces.

Usage Rate

Citrus thrips:
Apply 40 g MAINTAIN 200 SP per 100 ℓ water - Apply in the early season (at 100% petal-fall) as a light cover spray. - Repeat when threshold is exceeded but not later than 6 weeks after 100% petal-fall or first application, as pest repercussions may occur.

Mealybugs:
Apply 40 g/100 ℓ. Full cover spray when infestation is noticed.

Red scale:
Apply 50 g/100 ℓ. Full cover spray when infestation is noticed.

Do's & Don'ts

Apply a maximum of one application per season.
Monitor for Mealybug males using pheromone traps.
