Ornamental applications control or suppress adelgids, aphids, leaf-feeding beetles, emerald ash borer, lace bugs, leafhoppers, planthoppers, sharpshooters, mealybugs, psyllids, sawfly larvae, whiteflies, leafminers, soft scales, armored scales, pine tip moth larvae, roundheaded borers, root weevil larvae, and other labeled pests.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eApplication Notes\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor turfgrass, apply 5.4 to 8.6 oz per acre, equivalent to approximately 2.5 to 4 level teaspoons per 1,000 sq ft, for labeled white grubs, annual bluegrass weevil, billbugs, European crane fly, and related pests. Chinch bug suppression and mole cricket control use 8.6 oz per acre or approximately 4 level teaspoons per 1,000 sq ft. Preventive applications should be timed before egg hatch whenever possible. If rainfall does not occur within 24 hours after application, irrigate sufficiently to move the active ingredient through the thatch and into the root zone.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor ornamental plants, Imidacloprid 75 WP may be applied by foliar treatment, broadcast application, soil drench, or soil injection depending on the target pest and plant type. Soil-applied systemic movement can take substantially longer in large woody plants, so treatments should be made before anticipated pest pressure whenever possible. Do not apply to waterlogged or saturated soils. Observe all pollinator-protection restrictions and do not apply to blooming plants while bees are foraging. Always read and follow the complete product label.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eProduct Information\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eActive Ingredient:\u003c\/strong\u003e Imidacloprid 75%\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIRAC Group:\u003c\/strong\u003e 4A\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eChemical Family:\u003c\/strong\u003e Neonicotinoid\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMode of Action:\u003c\/strong\u003e Nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (nAChR) competitive modulator with systemic root uptake and upward plant translocation\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFormulation:\u003c\/strong\u003e Wettable Powder (WP) packaged in water-soluble packets (WSP)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSignal Word:\u003c\/strong\u003e CAUTION\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEPA Registration Number:\u003c\/strong\u003e 83529-366\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer:\u003c\/strong\u003e Sharda USA LLC\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBrand:\u003c\/strong\u003e Imidacloprid 75 WP T\u0026amp;O Insecticide\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGeneric For:\u003c\/strong\u003e Merit 75 WP\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Size:\u003c\/strong\u003e 4 × 1.6 oz water-soluble packets\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRecommended Surfactant:\u003c\/strong\u003e Prosurf 90\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Sharda USA","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50067132711050,"sku":"sharimidacloprid75wp6.4","price":29.87,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0660\/9331\/8282\/files\/imidacloprid_75_wp.jpg?v=1787256646","url":"https:\/\/www.intermountainturf.com\/products\/imidacloprid-75-wp-systemic-insecticide","provider":"Intermountain Turf Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
