Applications & Uses

Applicable Crop
Application Technique
Application
  • Kills larval stages of insects. Tank mix with adulticide to kill both adults and larvae.
  • Spray directly at insect for maximum effective- ness.
  • Apply in early to mid-morning or late afternoon.
  • This is especially important with whitefly adults which are typically sedentary on the undersides of leaves at this time of day.
  • Make a minimum of two applications, 5 to 7 days apart.
  • Maintain Azatin O in a diluted solution at pH between 3-7 and apply soon after preparation.
  • For best results use a spreader sticker at the suggested labeled rates.
Mode Of Action

Azatin O interferes with the key molting hormone, ecdysone, which prevents insects from progressing from one life stage to the next. It also acts as a feeding
deterrent and repellent of adult insects.

Use Sites

Azatin O may be used in greenhouse and other covered structures (including lathe and shade houses), interiorscapes, turf, nurseries and landscapes. Plants may be potted, grown in the soil or in soilless mixtures, or grown hydroponically.

Uses On Crops
  • Bedding plants, flowering plants and foliage
  • Woody ornamentals
  • Trees and shrubs
  • Citrus, pome and stone fruits
  • Cucurbit vegetables
  • Nuts
  • Bulb, cole and leafy vegetables
  • Legumes and fruiting vegetables
  • Root and tuber veg- etables
  • Small fruits and veg- etables
  • Herbs and spices
Application Rates

Foliar spray: Spray Azatin O on a preventative 7-day schedule or at the first sign of insect presence. Foliar spray rates range from 4 to 16 fl. oz. per 100 gallons of water, depending on target insect.

Drench: For drench applications, use Azatin O at the rate of 8 fl. oz. per 100 gallons of water. Apply Azatin O in sufficient water and for sufficient duration to distribute evenly to entire treated area.

Apply to moderately moist soils using volumes that thoroughly wet the soil but do not cause significant runoff or drip from pots.

Tank Mixing

Azatin O user should adhere to any applicable restrictions on the tank mix product. If the compatibility of tank mix partners is unknown, mixing a small amount of the products in a clear jar is advised prior to mixing a large tank.
