The drug Vallar from the larvae of the May beetle: instructions for use

Vallar from the larvae of the Maybug is one of the most effective remedies. Many insecticides can only get rid of adult insects. Most often they do not act on the larvae of the grubs. Therefore, the drug quickly spread among summer residents. It is used for processing fruit crops, berries (including strawberries), seedlings and seedlings of various trees – deciduous, coniferous. Differs in speed and high efficiency.

Operating principle

According to the principle of action, the insecticide Vallar belongs to three categories:

1. Intestinal – penetrates into the intestines of the insect (along with the juice of the eaten plant) and destroys it.
2. Contact – also penetrates through direct contact with the integument of the body, limbs.
3. Systemic – absorbed by the tissues of the plant and then moves through the vessels. Due to this, May beetles that feed on juices receive a toxin and die en masse.

According to its effect on pests, diazinon is classified as a nerve agent. Similarly, it acts not only on arthropods, but also on warm-blooded animals. The substance inhibits vital enzymes of the esterase class, which transmit nerve impulses. This leads to the accumulation of acetylcholine, the concentration of which reaches critical values, which leads to muscle cramps and finally to paralysis. As a result, after 2-3 days, the complete death of the larvae of May beetles and other beetles occurs (the effect is noticeable already on the first day).

After treatment with Vallar, the plants are reliably protected from pests for 30-40 days. At the same time, there is no waiting period, so the harvest can be harvested in a few days. From the moment of the last treatment, it is advisable to wait at least 4-5 days.

• there are no waiting periods – the crop can be harvested almost immediately;
• used for processing not only from the May beetles, but also from the wireworm;
• slightly toxic to humans.

How to apply Vallar from the larvae of the cockchafer

Instructions for using Vallar are quite simple. It is used in the form of a “talker” – a water extract. You need to act like this:

1. Wear gloves.
2. Measure the required amount of the drug (8 g per 1 liter of “talker”).
3. Pour a glass of water (200 ml) into the container.
4. Dissolve the granules, stir.
5. Put enough earth to make a thick mass.
6. Bring to a total volume of 1 L, stirring continuously.
7. If necessary, add a little soil to make a mushy mass.
8. Put seedlings with an open root system for several hours.
9. Plant them in the ground the next day.

Also, Vallar from May beetles is also used 25-30 days after planting seedlings or seedlings in the ground. Granules are scattered superficially, focusing on the consumption rate of 5 g per 1 m². After that, they add a little bit so that the granules pass into the surface layer of the soil. During the season, it is enough to carry out 1-2 treatments (first in the form of a “talker”, then – direct embedding of the granules into the ground).

For the total destruction of the larvae of May beetles, it is enough to carry out two treatments

Compatibility with other drugs

It is not recommended to mix Vallar with other drugs. Insecticide treatment is best done with a time interval of 3-5 days or more.
