- Application Rates
Discus L may be applied in field and container nurseries, greenhouses, and interior plantscapes as a drench or foliar spray. Banded field or broadcast applications provide season long control of white grub larvae such as: Japanese beetle, Oriental beetle, chafer complex and other nursery insect pests. Foliar or drench applications in greenhouse control pests such as: aphids, whiteflies, and mealybugs. Discus L may be used through chemigation systems. The addition of a surfactant may enhance product performance.
- Foliar Rate: 25 - 50 fl.oz. per 100 gallons of water
- Soil Rate: 1.14 - 1.91 gallons per acre
- Tank Mixing
Discus L is compatible with all commonly used fungicides, miticides, liquid fertilizers and other insecti-cides. Check physical compatibility using the correct proportion of products in a small jar if local experience is unavailable.
- Resistance Management
When applying insecticides, one should always focus on resistance management. Do not rely on one insecti-cide, combination of insecticides, or related insecticide classes. When labels permit, make 2 or 3 applications of an insecticide in sequence, then rotate to products with different modes of action. Try to avoid applying
the same insecticide to more than one generation of the pest.- Application
