How to properly dilute Corado against Colorado potato beetles

Fertilizers and preparations

To grow high-quality potatoes, it is not enough to just weed and water the garden.

After all, everyone knows that Colorado potato beetles and other pests destroy crops. To solve this problem, a powerful product called Corado was developed that will kill all pests after the first application.

Description of the drug Corado

Please note that the techniques provided are aimed at achieving maximum results.

The drug is packaged in capsules, each 10-25 ml in volume, containing a solution.

The capsules are made in such a way that they are as airtight as possible, so they do not spill during transportation.

The drug in question is a toxic substance known as avermectin C, extracted from the fungus Stereptomyces avermitilis.

How does the drug work?

It is known that many beetles (including the Colorado potato beetle) instantly develop immunity to many artificial toxins.

Moreover, their reproduction is so intense that many poisons are not able to combat them.

The uniqueness of Corado is that it works throughout the entire season and destroys all insects.

Another important advantage: corado tolerates moisture and sun well, and its properties are not lost in bad weather.

Despite its low cost, the drug is effective and acts immediately. The price is kept low to increase demand. The drug has been very popular in our country for many years.

How to dilute corado for potatoes

When using Corado against Colorado potato beetles, the instructions must be followed strictly. The proportions must not be altered. The product itself must not be mixed with other ingredients, otherwise you may be left without potatoes.

How to dilute Corado against the Colorado potato beetle is indicated on the packaging:

Prepare an ampoule with the substance and a five-liter bucket.

Fill a bucket with water (20-25°C), empty the ampoule, and mix thoroughly. Next, pour the solution into a spray bottle or applicator and begin spraying. The proper method for diluting Corado against Colorado potato beetles is described in the "Dosage" section.

To prepare a remedy for the Colorado potato beetle, a specialist in the store can provide instructions. Unfortunately, the consultant's job is to sell the product, not teach how to use it.

Rules for using the drug

Important! Spray potatoes at least three weeks before harvest. Otherwise, you risk losing your crop.

When handling, it is necessary to observe safety precautions, namely:

  • put on protective clothing, rubber gloves, and protective glasses to prevent the poison from getting on exposed areas of the body;
  • Do not use utensils intended for food;
  • When working with corado, you should not eat, drink, or even smoke, as poisonous particles can easily enter your body.

The treatment can be carried out in any weather; the preparation is not affected by rain or heat.

Precautions after work

After processing, you need to do the following:

  • rinse your mouth thoroughly, wash your face and hands with soap;
  • If the substance enters the body, you must drink 0.5-0.7 liters of water, after which you need to induce a gag reflex;
  • After this, take a glass of warm water, dissolve activated charcoal in it, and drink it. These methods will help prevent intoxication, as the poison is toxic. The drug's toxicity class is 3, so it must be handled with extreme caution.

If you feel unwell after treatment, you should consult a doctor immediately.

Dosage

Important! If you decide to dilute the Colorado potato beetle repellent, remember: spraying must be done on the same day.

Corado against the Colorado potato beetle provides a guaranteed result when used at a rate of 1 ml per 100 sq. m, 1 ml diluted in 10 liters of water.

Is it possible to spray during flowering?

Using Corado against Colorado potato beetles and other insects during the flowering period of vegetable crops is not recommended. If pests appear during flowering, it's better to use traditional methods, as potatoes are less receptive to artificial toxins during this period.

Advantages of the drug

  • low price;
  • easy to use;
  • gives a good effect;
  • fights many types of pests;
  • has a convenient release form.

How does the pest control product work?

The poison begins to take effect within two hours. It penetrates the Colorado potato beetle's nervous system and renders the insect unable to feed.

From this point on, they become harmless, and death occurs within 2-3 days.

Activity spectrum

The drug destroys: Colorado potato beetles, their larvae, aphids and many other parasites.

Period of protective actions

It's believed that with proper treatment, aphids disappear within 3-4 weeks, and Colorado potato beetles for the rest of the season. Of course, such claims cannot be accurate.

Therefore, after the third week from the date of treatment, you should inspect the plants from time to time.

After a month, the poison is completely eliminated from the plant and its consumption is considered safe.

The protective effect ends after 4 weeks.

Recommendations for use

Many people know how to use Corado against Colorado potato beetles, but there are still additional measures that will protect against unwanted consequences.

For safe operation you should:

  • for work, purchase a respiratory device and protective gloves;
  • avoid physical contact with the poison;
  • Make sure there is no one nearby, including animals.

Reviews

Angela, 45 years old, Samara

Since the beetles were aggressively attacking my potatoes, I had to take some action. Corado was my salvation. Within twelve days, the beetles had completely disappeared. I recommend it to everyone.

Pavel, 60 years old, Penza

I got the drug from a friend who highly praised it.
I decided to check: the bugs had disappeared, but the root vegetables had grown large and had a good taste.

Polina, Moscow, 41 years old

I tried poison to kill the Colorado potato beetle.
I sprayed the bushes with poison in the evening, but the beetles remained on the leaves. This was the first time I'd experienced this. But by the morning, the beetles were already dead. And within 3-5 days, all the larvae had died.

Conclusion

After getting to know Corado, Colorado potato beetle poison no longer seems like something not very effective.
Amazing effect and ease of use are facts that have proven themselves in practice.
