Application
Avert 25WP can be applied with conventional spraying equipment correctly calibrated to apply the correct rate of Avert 25WP in sufficient water to provide full coverage of the foliage. Do not use strainers finer than 300 microns.For the Porina Caterpillar, Avert 25WP is best applied when the majority of caterpillars are in the late surface-dwelling or early tunnelling stages, before they have grown to 25mm long. This will usually be 10-12 weeks after peak moth flights. Where peak moth flights occur in spring (October-November), caterpillar tunnels can be found in January-February. Where peak moth flights occur in January-March, caterpillar tunnels can be found in May-July.
For Clover Flea, Avert 25WP is best applied at the first sign of Clover Flea, which is usually in April-May when nymphs emerge from resting eggs. This will reduce the buildup of subsequent generations in winter.
