Timaterr

Benefits

vDue to its optimal solubility, thiamethoxam is absorbed by the plant's root system without loss and provides long-term (up to 45 days) protection from both soil and above-ground pests.

vIt has a high rate of impact on harmful organisms.

vThanks to Clothianidin, which is a metabolite of thiamethoxam, provides reliable protection of the seed and growing root system.

vProtection of not only germinating seeds, but also vegetative plants, This reduces the frequency of treatments during the growing season.

vThe high insecticidal activity of the preparation and its redistribution over the surface and inside the plant determines its effectiveness against sucking and gnawing insects.  

Mechanism of action

Thiamethoxam has an acute contact, intestinal, and systemic effect. When the drug enters the plant, thiamethoxam is metabolized to clothianidin, increasing the rate of action on insects.

It is absorbed by the seeds and, when swollen, quickly moves up the plant to newly forming parts. When consumed by insects, it affects the transmission of nerve impulses at the level of the acetylcholine receptor of the postsynaptic membrane, stopping motor activity, and Insects die.

Speed ​​of Action

After sowing the treated seeds (when the caryopsis swells), the preparation penetrates the plant and is transported through its vascular system, rendering all developing organs unsuitable for insect feeding. The insecticide's effect on insect pests occurs when they feed on the underground and aboveground parts of plants. Pests die within a few hours, depending on the application rate, insect species, and plant development stage.

Spectrum of action

Wireworms, cereal flies, grain flea beetles, grain ground beetles, stem flies, cruciferous flea beetles, wireworms, grain ground beetles, Colorado potato beetles, etc.

The full spectrum of insects destroyed is specified in the application regulations.

Protective Period

After entering the seed, during germination, the active substance is actively redistributed to all growing parts of the plant. Thus, the roots, stems, growing points, and leaves are reliably protected by the product and become inedible to pests for an extended period.

From sowing, the protection period is Up to 45 days under favorable weather conditions, depending on the crop, application rate, and pest.

Instructions for use

Using TIMATERR is not only a more effective pest control method than insecticidal treatments during vegetation, as it protects plants during the most vulnerable stages of development (from germination), but is also more environmentally friendly (reducing the pesticide load). Stir the contents of the canister well before use. A convenient formulation (suspension concentrate), thanks to the optimal adhesive content, promotes uniform distribution and preservation of the active substance on the seed surface.

After drying, the treated seeds do not "dust."

It is strictly forbidden to feed treated seeds to animals and birds.

Factors Affecting Efficiency

For treatment, it is recommended to use seeds free of dust and impurities, which guarantees good adhesion and, consequently, Better etching quality. Furthermore, dust can absorb the product, leading to a significant reduction in application rates. The product's effectiveness is little affected by weather conditions. It works equally well in dry conditions, at low temperatures, and in rainy weather (which is especially important for controlling grain beetle larvae in the fall, when rainfall sometimes prevents the application of insecticides during the growing season).

Treatment can be carried out either immediately before sowing or 1-2 weeks in advance.

Phytotoxicity

There is no risk of phytotoxicity when used strictly according to the instructions. The product is highly selective and does not adversely affect seed germination or vigor.
