Description
Pegasus is a powerful broad-spectrum insecticide and acaricide from Syngenta containing Diafenthiuron 50% WP. It features an advanced vapor and translaminar action that penetrates leaf tissues to control hidden pests like whiteflies, mites, and aphids residing on lower leaf surfaces or dense canopies. It serves as an effective solution for managing pests that have developed resistance to conventional chemicals
Key Features
Vapor & Translaminar Action: Converts into a gas-phase effect inside crop canopies to reach hard-to-access pests.
Immediate Stop-Feeding Effect: Paralyzes insects instantly upon exposure, halting crop damage right away.
Resistance Breaker: Highly effective against resistant populations of whiteflies and diamondback moths.
Key Benefits
Instant Crop Protection: Stops pests from feeding immediately, even if complete mortality takes a couple of days.
Long-Lasting Control: Offers extended residual protection to reduce application frequency.
Rain-Fastness: Strongly binds to foliage once dry, resisting wash-off from unexpected rains.
Safety Precautions
How to Use: Premix the powder in a small amount of water to form a smooth slurry before pouring it into the main spray tank with constant stirring.
Tank Mix Compatibility: Generally compatible with standard insecticides and fungicides; avoid mixing with highly alkaline substances.
Application Timing: Best applied during late afternoons or evenings to protect foraging honeybees and allow optimal UV activation.
Handling & Storage: Wear full protective gear including gloves, face masks, and goggles during application. Store securely in a cool, dry place in its original container, away from children, pets, food, and water sources.
