To achieve great results, accurate application is important.

| Target | Syngenta Nozzle | Optimal Water Rate | Optimal Pressure Range |
| :--- | :--- | :--- | :--- |
| Root and soil | XC 08 | 450 to 890 L/ha | 2 to 4 bar |
| Leaf and crown | XC 04 or XC 025 | > 400 L/ha | 2 to 4 bar |

ACELEPRYN is very active against 1st and 2nd instar larvae of the most destructive turf infesting grub species. The window for
application should thus be positioned around the peak egg laying period by adult beetles. This timing can be monitored by
the increasing activity of adult beetles, usually during spring and early summer. ACELEPRYN will provide excellent curative
caterpillar control in turfgrass and should be applied when pests/damage is observed.

Example: African Black Beetle egg laying traditionally peaks around October whereas that of the Argentinian Scarab peaks
around November to early December. A single application at 1.5 L/ha in early spring (September) should be sufficient to
ensure control of both species the entire season.
