DETAIL INFORMATION

Manufacturer: Russell IPM

Tomato leafminer (Tuta absoluta) is a dangerous quarantine pest of tomato and can cause up to 100% yield loss. Crop protection companies have tried many ways to control the tomato leaf miner. Some of them are effective, but progress does not stand still - a more effective and less laborious way to control Tuta absoluta has appeared. This is the new Tutagel from Russel IPM.
Tutagel is a gel substance with a pheromone and an insecticide based on spinosad. The form is a small syringe designed for 30 injections. They do not need to be introduced into the plant, they are evenly distributed over a hectare on structures or traps. Each injection leaves a small layer of a substance where the pest will fly to the smell of the pheromone, feed and die from the insecticide. Tutagel perfectly complements the well-established technology for protection against Tuta absoluta and does not require much labor. All you need is Tutagel himself and a person who will leave marks with a syringe.
