Insectoacaricide of intestinal contact action, effective against various types of mites and other pests of flowers (flower beetles, thrips, all types of aphids, whiteflies, scale insects) and garden plants (Colorado potato beetle, cabbage whitefly, cabbage scoop, spider mite, codling moth, leaf phylloxera, weevil, tea moth, mushroom mosquitoes, flies, etc.). Active ingredient: pirimiphos-methyl, at a concentration of 500 g/l. Chemical Class: Organophosphorus Compounds (OPs)

Producer: "Syngenta Crop Protection AG" (Switzerland), Firma August (Russia). Produced in the form of a 50% emulsion concentrate pirimifos-methyl, in ampoules of 2 ml, for garden purposes - in canisters of 5 liters. Hazard class - 2 (hazardous substance). Actellik analogue: Kamikaze drug, EC

Features of the drug

Pyrimiphos-methyl belongs to the organophosphate group of pesticides. This causes its intestinal and contact action: it consists in disrupting the functioning of the acetylcholinesterase enzyme and the complex biochemical cycle of acetylcholine metabolism. With its accumulation in the tissues of the nervous system, the functions of various organs are disrupted, which leads to poisoning of the entire body of the pest;
Actellik (and other pesticides based on pirimiphosmethyl) are classified as contact with a deep effect (translaminar action) according to the method of penetration into the body. The drug is able to penetrate into the leaf tissue and cause the death of mining pests;
Actellik has a fumigation effect, which is enhanced in warm and humid conditions (at air temperatures above 15 ° C). But, if the air temperature is above 28 - 30 ° C, processing is not recommended;
Fumigant action helps to control pests that feed on the underside of the leaf and do not lend themselves to direct contact with the working solution when spraying;
With the systematic use of pyrifos-methyl against ticks and insects that give many generations per season, these pests quickly develop acquired group resistance;
Actellik is compatible with other drugs if the reaction of the solution is neutral: in the presence of acids and alkalis, Actellik undergoes hydrolysis (mixing with Bordeaux liquid and other alkaline preparations is unacceptable);
The protective effect of Actellik is 10-12 days in closed ground, 3-10 days in open ground;
The drug is not phytotoxic.

Reviews

Actellik reviews have an unambiguous assessment - all flower growers and gardeners who used the drug on their plants note high efficiency. Actellik really destroys pests, usually a single spray is enough. Most buyers note the only drawback - the smell, sharp, chemical, when working in a confined space (room, balcony), headache and nausea may begin if it is not well ventilated.

But for the sake of objectivity, all the advantages and disadvantages of the actellik should be noted.

effective
inexpensive
helps immediately
commercially available
helps against all pests even ticks
easy to use
destroys even house bugs and beetles in the garden (weevil)
actellik works even at high temperatures (in hot weather in summer)

Flaws:

strong pungent odor, lasts 1-2 days in the apartment
fumes toxicity
danger to bees when gardening
high price for garden preparations (in canisters)
in horticulture, a rather high consumption of the drug
does not work as a preventative
it is necessary to moisten the surface of the leaves very well on both sides
suitable for tank mixes only neutral reaction (non-resistant in acidic and alkaline environments)

Note

Actellik is one of the most powerful non-systemic insecticides for the treatment of indoor and garden plants. Despite the good reviews of flower growers, and a powerful action (deep contact + fumigation), sometimes survivors remain among the pests. In this case, you need to change the drug (alternate with synthetic pyrethroids: Iskra, Inta-Vir, Arrivo). In indoor floriculture, this is primarily due to high toxicity, rather than the resistance of insects and mites.

Consumption rates

How to breed Actellik for garden treatments: dilute the contents of a 2 ml ampoule in 2 liters of water. Consumption rates 1.5-2 liters per 10 square meters. m of vegetation, 2-5 liters per tree. Maximum 2 treatments.

How to breed Actellik for home flower treatments: dissolve the contents of a 2 ml ampoule in 2 liters of water, with a large number of pests 2 ml per 1 liter of water. No more than 1 treatment is desirable, 2 treatments are acceptable.

How to breed Actellik for orchids: the contents of an ampoule are 2 ml per 2 liters of water. Try not to increase your concentration.

Exceeding dosages is permissible only if the usual consumption rate does not kill pests from the first treatment, and there is no replacement preparation with a different active ingredient for repeated spraying. Do not forget that Aktellik is an insectoacaricide of intestinal contact action, i.e., the effectiveness depends on the thoroughness of spraying, the penetration of the solution into hard-to-reach places, and not on the concentration of the drug.

Waiting time - the time after processing before harvesting is on average 20-30 days. The longer the term, the better! On vegetables and grapes, you can spray no earlier than 30 days before harvesting, on fruit trees - 20 days before, currants, gooseberries - 30 days, strawberries and raspberries, as well as peaches - 50 days before harvesting.

Toxicity

Information about the half-life of the active substance is very contradictory. According to some data, Aktellik remains on the treated surfaces of residential or warehouse premises for 11-15 weeks. According to others - within 2 - 3 days after treatment, due to rapid evaporation. In any case, after use in a residential area (apartment), it is worth washing the contact surfaces (window sills, shelves, window panes) with soapy water. Pirimiphos-methyl is inactive in soil, with a half-life of about four weeks.

Actellik is dangerous for fish, bees (hazard class 1), beneficial insects, has low toxicity for warm-blooded animals and humans when administered orally.

When used in an apartment, actellik vapors most often caused headaches and nausea. Therefore, thorough ventilation is required. The presence of animals and children in the room is strictly prohibited.

Security measures. Processing should be carried out using personal protective equipment (respirator, gloves, goggles, protective clothing). Remember that microscopic particles of the drug will remain on clothing and last for several days! Do not smoke, drink or eat while working. After work, wash your face and hands with soap and rinse your mouth. Store the drug in a cool, dry place at a temperature of -15C to +30C, away from food and drugs, out of the reach of children and pets! Storage of the working solution is not allowed. When used in private farms, mixing with other drugs is prohibited.

First aid for poisoning: in case of contact with the skin, wash off with soap and water; in case of contact with eyes, rinse with plenty of running water; if it enters the digestive tract, drink 3-4 glasses of water, induce vomiting, take several tablets of activated charcoal, seek medical help. Pirimiphos-methyl antidotes: atropine sulfate, cholinesterase reactivators.

Actellik is a systemic insecticide-acaricide pesticide that additionally has fumigant activity to protect against a complex of pests of fruit, berry, vegetable and flower crops in protected ground and to treat warehouses when storing grain and food stocks.

Let us consider in detail its purpose, composition, dosages, processing regulations, restrictions, compatibility and safety standards.

"Aktellik" - insectoacaricide from insect pests. It was originally developed and used to disinfect warehouses and granaries from pests located in hard-to-reach places. Having shown its high efficiency (high speed of action and a long period of activity), it has found wider application as a drug for pest control in horticultural farms.

The drug for a long time was not produced in small forms for personal subsidiary farms, as a result of which it gained the fame of a “secret drug”. Thereby heating to it even greater interest from gardeners.

In fact, this is an "ambulance" for destruction:

scale insects and false scale insects;
, as well as phylloxera, strawberry mites, worms, sawflies, arachnids, fleas, thrips and other crawling and flying insects.

Composition and formulation

Active substance - pyrimiphos-methyl 500 gr./l. The drug belongs to organophosphorus insecticides (FOS).

The drug from the complex of pests "Aktellik", manufacturer
Syngenta

The drug was developed by the largest Swiss company Syngenta, the registrant in Russia is its official representative Syngenta LLC, Moscow, and is officially produced by Avgust, as well as a number of other companies.

Preparative form - EC (emulsion concentrate)

Produced for industrial agricultural production in 1 liter canisters. and 5l., for private household plots - in ampoules of 2 and 5 ml., or bottles of 50 and 100 ml.

Operating principle

The action of the drug refers to the systemic contact-intestinal principle of exposure to the insect

a) contact effect- the active substance works in direct contact with the integument of the body of the insect, affecting the nervous system and reproductive properties. Although it has been studied that some insects have protective mechanisms that neutralize the concentration of poison - increased secretion of external glands or autotomy (separation of infected limbs from the body). Therefore, in the preparation, in addition, intestinal penetration of the poison is used.

b) Intestinal effects- acts after the poison enters the intestines of the pest. As a result, poisoning and effects on the nervous system of harmful insects occur. It is important to note that Actellik has an effect on all stages of insect development, except for the egg, that is, on all forms capable of self-feeding.

Due to the fact that the Actellik drug acts systemically (both as a contact and as an intestinal one), it has a guaranteed high end result. In addition, the drug has fumigant properties.

The preparation "Aktellik", the manufacturer is the company "August"

Application features - regulations for treatments and dosages

Use on open and protected ground

The drug "Aktellik" has found application in the protection of vegetable, fruit and berry and flower crops grown in open and protected ground.

In open ground conditions, the action of the drug is limited, since it has a hazard class 1 (especially dangerous) when exposed to bees. But in conditions of protected ground (greenhouses, greenhouses, greenhouses), the drug "Aktellik" is widely and widely used.

The drug is applied by spraying on the vegetative parts of plants at the first signs of detection of insect pests.

The concentration of the working solution is usually used 0.1-0.15%, depending on the number of insects and the age of the plant. In epiphytotic situations, the dosage can be increased by 2-4 times.

The dosage of the drug is determined by the instructions for use:

Consumption of working liquid 5-15-l./100m2, depending on the processed culture and intensity of spraying.

It should be borne in mind that the solution of the drug "Actellik" must be applied to both sides of the leaves and to prevent excessive runoff from the leaf surface. The product is sprayed with garden pump sprayers. However, the best way to spray is "cold fog", for this special equipment is used.

The number of treatments is most often 2-fold and at intervals of 5-7 days.

The period of protective action when using Actellik is 1-2 weeks, then, if necessary, the treatments are repeated.

Use for processing rooms, warehouses and storage facilities

Processing of warehouses of the food industry and healthcare institutions, as well as storages of grain and other products from pests, is carried out by the preparation "Aktellik" 3-4 weeks before receipt for storage. If there is information about the presence of contamination of the premises, a 2-fold treatment is carried out. The second treatment must be carried out at least 1 week prior to storage. Before spraying the drug, I should clean the room - remove the remnants of past storage, dirt, old insects, which can be reserves for new infections.

The treatment is also carried out by spraying the working solution. Dosage - 16 ml. concentrate for 0.8-1l.

The flow rate of the working fluid is up to 30-50 ml. working solution per 1 m 2 of the cultivated area of \u200b\u200bthe premises, or at the rate of 1 liter. working solution for processing 1t. grains.

Examples of the drug "Aktellik" from pests of other manufacturers

Processing of indoor plants

The drug "Aktellik" is effective for protecting indoor plants from scale insects, false scale insects, mealybugs and thrips. It is used as a therapeutic agent for the destruction of pests, and as a prophylactic. The methods and procedure for processing are set out in a separate material on the site.

Dosage 2ml./1-1.5l. water. The drug is applied by spraying / irrigation, or both sides of the leaf plate are wiped with a working solution.

The consumption of the working solution is 50-200 ml. per plant, depending on the size and type of plant.

Compatibility and analogues

There are no restrictions on the compatibility of Actellik with other insecto-acaricides.

So, if it is necessary to re-treat after the end of the period of protective action (up to 2 weeks), the drug "Aktellik" better to use together with preparations "Vermitek" or. Such a technique will disrupt the development cycle of the insect and provide more effective protection of crops.

The drug "Actellik" is well compatible with biological products, due to the low level of its persistence. However, the drug is not compatible with Bordeaux liquid and preparations containing copper and its derivatives.

Persistence - the ability of pesticides to resist the degrading action of physical, chemical and biological processes in environmental objects.

As analogues of the drug, drugs can be noted, "Vermitek", "," Kamikaze ",", "Spark", "Commander", etc.

Drug safety

Hazard class of the drug for humans - class 2, for bees - class 1 (especially dangerous)

After the treatment of greenhouses, warehouses, premises or storage facilities, the admission of people is allowed only after 1-3 days, provided that the MPC of the active substance (pyrimifos-methyl) in the air of the working area is not exceeded.
