Important Information for Use:

  • Immediate Action: This product starts working as soon as it is introduced to the plants. However, visible results, such as whitefly pupae changing color, will become noticeable after 14-21 days.

Step 1: Arrival 

Upon arrival, please ensure that you place the product out immediately or within 1-2 days of receipt. Do not store the product in the refrigerator; instead, place the boxes in a cool, dark location at around 14°C until use.

Step 2: Placement 

Open the package carefully inside the area you want to treat. Bend and tear off the strips opposite the mounting hole. Make sure not to touch the pupae during handling. Suspend the cards in the crop, approximately 75 cm under the plant head. Avoid hanging cards in places exposed to direct sunlight.
