Provaunt Turf Insecticide

Syngenta Provaunt Turf Insecticide

For the control of Argentine Stem Weevil adults and larvae, and Lepidoptera grub larvae in turf.

PROVAUNT Turf Insecticide targets and destroys both adult and larvae including the critical 3rd and 4th Instars. This powerful unique chemistry can be used preventatively and curatively to shut down the Argentine Stem Weevil (ASW) life cycle. PROVAUNT delivers excellent curative performance, with optimal results achieved when applications are made before population numbers build to damaging levels. For Argentine Stem Weevil adults applications should be made with the appearance of over wintering adult pests. A second application should be made early summer to treat adults and stem feeding larvae. For Lepidoptera grubs an application should be made as soon as activity is detected.
