How to use it
Mix 20ml per litre of water, spray as insects appear and repeat at weekly intervals. Since it is not systemic, spraying underneath foliage is necessary.
Do not apply to young seedlings.
Do not apply to vegetables or fruit trees less than one day before harvest.
Ineffective if not sprayed under the foliage where insects occur, if incorrect dilution rates are used, or if rain follows shortly after spraying.
NOTE: Pyrethrin is decomposed by sunlight and has no residual effect.
