Entonem

Preparation

• Remove the sachets from the box and keep them at room temperature for 30 minutes
• Empty the contents of the sachets into a bucket containing at least 2 litres of water per sachet (water temperature: 15-20°C/59-68°F)
• Stir well and leave the contents to soak for five minutes
• Stir again and pour the contents of the bucket into the half-filled spray tank (except when tank mixing with a compatible product)
• Maintain agitation of mixture in the tank (e.g. with a recirculation pump)
• Fill the spray tank with the required amount of water
• If tank mixing with a compatible product, add Entonem at the end to a fully filled tank
• Apply directly after preparation of spray solution

Dosage

Entonem is typically applied at a rate of 250,000 to 500,000 nematodes per m² for soil application and 1 to 3 million nematodes per litre for foliar applications (application to run off). Always check the product label for more information.

Timing

Timing and frequency depend on the pest species and the crop environment (relative humidity, soil moisture and temperature). Consult a Koppert advisor or a recognized distributor of Koppert products for advice on the best strategy for your situation.

Side Effects & Compatibility

• Pesticides can have (in)direct effects on biological solutions
• As a general rule for tank mixing, always add the nematodes to a fully filled tank containing the compatible product
• The product is safe for most beneficial insects and mites, but can have some effect on a few when in direct contact with foliar applied nematodes

Check the Koppert side effects database or contact your local representative for advice.
