### How and when to use Danisaraba

#### Rates
| | |
| :--- | :--- |
| **100 mL/100 L:** (min of 1L/ha when using less than 1000L water) | Almonds, Citrus, Table and wine grapes, Nursery stock (including chrysanthemums, cyclamens, fuchsias, gerbera daisies, roses and African violets), Pome fruit |
| **1 L/ha:** | Fruiting vegetables (including protected tomato crops), Strawberries (field and protected crops) |

#### Timing
Use Danisaraba for your first miticide application of the season, as mite populations begin to build and before mite damage is observed, to take full advantage of its control of all life stages.
Continue to monitor the crop and make a second application after 14 days if necessary, with a different mode of action.

#### Method
Danisaraba is a contact miticide with no translaminar movement within the plant, so thorough spray coverage is essential.
Adjust the water volume according to the crop growth stage to ensure thorough coverage up to the point of run-off.
Adding a non-ionic surfactant may enhance the speed of knockdown, coverage and overall control.

#### Resistance management
Danisaraba is a Group 25A insecticide. Follow the CropLife resistance management guidelines, when using Danisaraba, and apply no more than 2 applications per season (alternating with another mode of action miticide).
CropLife resistance management guidelines are available from your local BASF representative and at
