Situation Pest Rate/ha Critical Comments
Golf courses, Lawns including commercial and residential lawn areas, Sports grounds, Other sport and recreational turfgrass areas Beetle larvae including African Black Beetle (Heteronychus arator) 75 to 150 kg Apply before or at peak egg hatch for maximum control (typically mid-September). Apply the higher rate for early season (mid September) application where long residual protection is required, or in later season applications (mid December onwards) when less sensitive mid instar grubs are present at the time of application, or in cases of high pest pressure. Wash in with minimum 3mm irrigation.
Argentinian Scarab (Cyclocephala signaticollis) Apply before or at peak egg hatch for maximum control (typically mid December). Use the higher application rates for later season applications when less sensitive mid instar grubs are present at the time of application or in cases of high pest pressure. Wash in with minimum 3mm irrigation.
Argentine Stem Weevil larvae (Listronotus bonariensis), Billbug larvae (Sphenophorus brunnipennis) Apply early season (mid September) applications when overwintered adults are first observed, to prevent damage and population build up. Early application is essential to prevent grass damage due to feeding. Use the higher application rates when extended residual performance is required or for later season applications (mid December onwards) or in cases of high pest pressure. Wash in with minimum 3mm irrigation.
Caterpillars including Black Cutworm (Agrotis ipsilon), Lawn Armyworm (Spodoptera mauritia), Sod Webworm (Herpetogramma licarsisalis) 75 kg To ensure optimum control, delay watering (irrigation) or mowing for 24 hours after application.

WITHHOLDING PERIOD: DO NOT GRAZE TREATED TURF/LAWN OR FEED TURF/LAWN CLIPPINGS FROM ANY TREATED AREA TO POULTRY OR LIVESTOCK


General Instructions

ACELEPRYN® GR Insecticide is an anthranilic diamide insecticide in the form of a dry granule. ACELEPRYN® GR delivers excellent preventative performance, with optimal results achieved when applied early in the season with the appearance of overwintering adult pests. The long residual performance of ACELEPRYN® GR will provide up to 6 months protection at the higher application rates. Curative control with ACELEPRYN® GR on pest outbreaks later in the season can be achieved using the higher recommended application rates. Timing of application will be dependent on location.

Compatibility As formulations of other manufacturer’s granular products are beyond the control of Syngenta, blends with other products is not recommended as products of differing size granules may result in uneven applications.

Application

  • The use of a professional spreader or equivalent that can be calibrated for even output is essential for optimal product performance.
  • The equipment must be calibrated as per the manufacturer’s recommendation to ensure even application over the treated area.
  • Use a drop type, rotary type or hand held application equipment.
  • During application check equipment periodically to ensure distribution remains even and effective.
  • For optimal control, irrigate with approximately 6 mm of water immediately after application (except where treating for caterpillars, when irrigation and mowing should be delayed for 24 hours).

Application Timing African Black Beetle / Argentinian Scarab: ACELEPRYN® GR Turf Insecticide may be applied from spring onwards for preventative control of these species infesting turfgrass. The need for an application may be based on historical monitoring of the site, previous records or experiences, current season adult trapping or other methods. Argentine Stem Weevil / Billbug: ACELEPRYN® GR Turf Insecticide should be applied when overwintered adults are first observed to prevent damage in late spring. An application at this time will also give excellent control of African Black Beetle. Caterpillars: ACELEPRYN® GR Turf Insecticide will provide excellent curative caterpillar control in turfgrass and should be applied when pests/damage is observed.

Spreading Equipment Cleanout Immediately following application, thoroughly clean all spreading equipment to reduce the risk of forming hardened deposits which might become difficult to remove. Thoroughly rinse spreader with clean water. Clean all other associated application equipment. Take all necessary safety precautions when cleaning equipment. DO NOT clean near wells, water sources or desirable vegetation. Dispose of waste rinse water in accordance with local regulations.

Insecticide Resistance Warning GROUP 28 INSECTICIDE For insecticide resistance management ACELEPRYN® GR TURF INSECTICIDE is a Group 28 insecticide. Some naturally occurring insect biotypes resistant to ACELEPRYN® GR and other Group 28 insecticides may exist through normal genetic variability in any insect population. The resistant individuals can eventually dominate the insect population if ACELEPRYN® GR and other Group 28 insecticides are used repeatedly. The effectiveness of ACELEPRYN® GR on resistant individuals could be significantly reduced. Since occurrence of resistant individuals is difficult to detect prior to use, Syngenta Australia Pty Ltd accepts no liability for any losses that may result from failure of ACELEPRYN® GR to control resistant insects. ACELEPRYN® GR may be subject to specific resistance management strategies. To help prevent the development of resistance to ACELEPRYN® GR, use ACELEPRYN® GR in accordance with the current Insecticide Resistance Management (IRM) strategy for your region. For further information contact your supplier, Syngenta representative or local agricultural department agronomist.
