About HERFOSEC:
Biological Crop Care in agriculture, horticulture, gardens and parks, where nuisance of insects and their larvae occurs in herbaceous plants
HERFOSEC is a highly concentrated composition of specific herbal concentrate, based on water and soy oil. Available in liquid, grain shape and granulate
HERFOSEC can be used as an indirect expulsion for all kinds of nuisances of insects and larvae in leaves like caterpillar, pear psylla, spider mites, gall midge, white fly, leaf miner, thrips, scale insects, mealybugs, ermine moth and Lily beetle.
HERFOSEC will be absorbed by the roots, soil and foliage. Partly thanks to the present root stimulating and nutritional ingredients the roots, leaves and soil will develop an increased resistance.
The ingredients in the product have, in addition to a soil improvement and a crop enhancing effect, an indirect effect on pests and diseases. Foliar insects and their larvae will be inhibited in their development. The treated crops or soil are no longer attractive for them. The trees and crops will develop their own defense system by increasing the resistance and will show a healthy growth.
We recommend to apply the product as a preventative, especially when in the past there has been much inconvenience and damage.
But when damage and deterioration is detected, the product can still, on targeted advice, be successfully applied.
For optimal success,when liquid form is applied, dry weather circumstances are required. Clouded and covered weather is very important. For grains or granules moist weather conditions are required.
Grains or granules can be scattered and/or mixed with the soil. Application using dry injection can be performed with a special treatment. If species are vulnerable, HERFOSEC can be mixed with the soil in the plant hole.
A follow-up treatment may be necessary (depending on weather and disease pressure).
