DIRECTIONS FOR USE

For use only as a molluscicide.

Warnings
Due to the mode of action of ferric phosphate, following consumption of the bait slugs usually retreat underground to die and there will be little evidence of dead slugs. The effects of treatment may therefore not be immediately visible. Effectiveness should therefore be measured by the decrease of feeding damage in the crop. The result of treatment with IRONMAX PRO can therefore only be assessed on the basis of reduced crop damage.

Application
IRONMAX PRO may be applied by mechanical applicator, by hand or by hand-held equipment.
Take care during application to prevent pellets resting on or lodging in leaves, florets or other parts of the plants.
Intervals and number of applications
Re-treatment may be required, especially when pellets have been consumed or when subsequent generations occur.
Interval between applications: minimum 5 days.

Application timing
Best results are achieved when treatment takes place before damage occurs. For annual crops, it is advised to treat before emergence. Apply the product after seedbed preparation is complete.
Application timing should take into consideration:
• Pest detection or likelihood of activity
• Part of the crop targeted by the pest; whether it is the seeds, seedling plants or harvestable produce that are affected will define a specific strategy.
