• Microscopic worms from Nemabact help fight the larvae of harmful insects.

The disadvantage of biological agents is their high price and low effectiveness in case of severe damage.

Processing time

Fertilizer spark double effect is convenient and effective, with the right choice of time when to spray. For processing, it is necessary to choose calm weather, without gusty winds, which can blow the working solution away from the green mass. Choose a day for spraying so that there is no rain in the next few days, otherwise all your efforts will be in vain.

Plants should be treated either early in the morning or in the afternoon so that the insecticide applied to the green mass of plants is not destroyed under the influence of active sun.

Protecting cultivated plants from insects, in which the spark double effect is the undoubted leader, is a complex and painstaking matter. But this drug is formulated in such a way and in such a form that you do not need to be a professional entomologist or chemist to use it successfully. These factors are the main advantages of this chemical, decisive for many amateur gardeners.

The product is safe for humans and beneficial insects; it does not harm earthworms in the ground. The main active ingredient in it is imidacloprid. The Golden Spark pest repellent is used as follows.

To treat potatoes in order to get rid of aphids, ladybugs and Colorado potato beetles, you need to dilute 1 ml of the “Golden Spark” product in 5-10 liters of water. This amount of solution should be enough for 1 hundred square meters. To protect indoor cucumbers and tomatoes from thrips and aphids, you need to make a solution of 10 liters of water and 2 ml of “Golden Spark”.

Composition and varieties

There are many types of Spark, they contain basic components. Compounds affect a specific type of parasite, in their various forms.

So in the composition:

• permethrin. The substance is a poison of plant origin. Pyrethrum is found in large quantities in chamomile;
• To paralyze the acaricide, cypermethrin is included in the composition. Its task is to paralyze the nerve endings of the parasite, leading to death. At the same time it eliminates masonry.

After applying the drug to the plant, an invisible crust (protective layer) is formed. If processed correctly, it will appear not only on the foliage, but on the fruits and shoots. After contact with the Spark, the insect is paralyzed, which will lead to natural death (inability to feed).

There are no contraindications or temperature restrictions. On the contrary, the higher the temperature (+25 - +30), the greater the chance of quickly eliminating parasitic insects. Precipitation and drought are not terrible either.

Stores offer different types of the drug. The release form is different.

Iskra M

The malathion-based chemical is an improved version of karbofos. The inexpensive drug "Iskra M" is used as immediate help for neglected areas.

The emulsion has a suffocating toxic odor and does not leave the crops for a long time. If plants are treated regularly, insects develop resistance.

“Spark double effect” – in tablets

Recommended for use against:

• aphids;
• weevils;
• ticks;
• codling moths;
• leaf rollers;
• Colorado potato beetles;

The great advantage of this insecticide against pests is that it is filled with potassium fertilizer and a special component that helps damaged plants restore vitality, strengthen and increase green mass. That is, the tablets correspond to their name; they are actually two drugs in one shell - both protection and nutrition.

The spray solution is prepared according to the instructions for use. First, the tablet is dissolved in a small volume of liquid, after which the working solution must be filtered so that it does not clog the sprayer. Then the concentrate must be added with water until a ten-liter volume is obtained. The result is an adhesive suspension, which, due to its properties, adheres well to the surface of the greenery and is not washed off by raindrops.

It is recommended to repeat the treatment throughout the warm season, not only during growth, but also during fruit set and ripening.

Treating the garden against pests in the fall

They respond most well to spraying with the double-effect Iskra insecticide:

• fruit plants (apple, pear, quince, sweet cherry, cherry). The drug destroys codling moths, aphids, leaf rollers, caterpillars, weevils, cherry flies, moths, and flower beetles. Trees are treated with 10 liters of liquid suspension. The amount of diluted liquid depends on the age of the plant or its damage by insects - this volume is enough for 5 seedlings or one adult tree;
• all berry bushes, strawberries and wild strawberries. The drug destroys weevils, sawflies, leaf rollers, mites, and aphids. Liquid consumption is 1.5 liters per 10 square meters;
• all legumes, eggplants, peppers, melons. The concentration of the solution is the same as for berry bushes;

Detailed instructions can be found on the sachet with the drug.

"Iskra Bio"

This type of pest control works best at high air temperatures (from +25 degrees). Irrigation of plants with it should be carried out only in the evening, this is due to the fact that under the influence of the sun and oxygen, the active substance of the drug is subject to rapid decomposition. Given this circumstance, it is necessary to resort to repeated treatments.

Preparation of working solution

Preparation of a working insecticide solution depends on the consistency and concentration of the drug. Let's look at how to prepare the Iskra Zolotaya solution, as well as instructions for use.

• Preparation of the “Iskra Zolotaya” solution from a liquid composition

Natural remedy “Iskra BIO”: characteristics of the substance and application

Gardeners and gardeners who prefer biological insecticides can use the substance Iskra BIO - an emulsion based on Avertin. The component is a waste product of special soil fungi. It suppresses the immune system of pests and depresses the nervous system, which leads to the death of both adult insects and their larvae. The Russian pesticide Iskra BIO actively fights against:

• with all classes of aphids;
• thrips;
• leaf-eating parasites;
• Colorado beetle;
• ticks, etc.

When using the substance Iskra BIO, the instructions for use should be studied carefully, since the biological component requires compliance with the recommended standards, otherwise the drug is useless. The product must be applied to plants at an ambient temperature of +190C. When the thermometer needle drops below +120C, according to the instructions, the pest control drug Iskra BIO is ineffective (the fungus does not reproduce). In the range of +140C to +180C the effect is weak. The higher the air temperature, the more actively Avertin affects pests.

The natural pest repellent Iskra, the instructions confirm this fact, is an ideal solution for indoor soils (greenhouses). Causing paralysis in insects, it kills populations 1.5-2 days after application. It is better to time the processing procedure in the evening hours. When fighting pests with the help of Avertin, crops will have to be re-treated. The active component quickly decomposes under the influence of sun and oxygen.

Concentrate Caviar Triple Effect - protection against the Colorado potato beetle and other 140 types of pests. The use of the drug also guarantees the restoration of plant health after a pest attack. One packet of powder is enough to process 2 acres. The Triple Effect powder and the Iskra golden VRK anti-pest product have the same instructions for preparing the solution and using it. Protection against insects is valid for 24-31 days.

When using any product, it is recommended to use personal protective equipment and strictly follow the instructions.

Instructions for use

In order for insecticides to work and not cause harm, you need to use them according to the rules. A low concentration leads to the development of immunity in insects, and too high a concentration leads to burns on tissues. The instructions for the drug depend on the desired result and the type of product.

Preparation of working solution

The chemical “Iskra” is produced in the form of powder, liquid and tablets, which dissolve well in water. A single dose is diluted in 10 liters, the optimal temperature for work is at least +16 °C. Pour the component into a third of the bucket’s volume, stir for 6 minutes, and add the rest of the moisture. If you need to get a high concentration of the drug, then increase the amount of the chemical.

Features of using the drug for various crops

The pesticide in question, like any other agricultural product, is characterized by specific rules of application depending on the type of plant being treated.

1. Spraying potatoes against beetles is carried out during active growth. To prepare the solution, mix 2 ml of poison with a bucket of water in a spray bottle. For 10 sq. m. you will need 0.5 liters of Iskra Zolotoy. If you use a “Double Effect” tablet, the volume will be enough for 100 squares.
2. For fruit trees and ornamental shrubs it is better to use the tablet form. One dose is diluted according to the instructions, sprayed on the foliage, trunk, and shoots. For young specimens you will need no more than 2 liters, for old ones - 5.

The poison is dangerous for pollinators, so treatments are done before the buds appear and after harvesting.

1. Arthropods destroy plantings of cucumbers, tomatoes and flowers. In the instructions for use, Iskra Zolotaya is recommended during mass outbreaks of parasites. A 5 ml ampoule is diluted in 10 liters of liquid. The consumption of the working solution is 2 liters per 10 squares. To kill aphids on indoor plants, 1 ml per 1 liter of water is enough.
2. For flowers, berries and garden crops, it is better to use “Double Effect” in tablets – 1 pc. for 10 l. Spraying is carried out in the morning or evening, the consumption of the working solution is 3 liters per 20 square meters. m. It is forbidden to process by buds and before harvesting.

The Iskra Bio insecticide works at temperatures from +28 °C, so it is better suited for closed greenhouse conditions. The concentration of the product depends on the object of destruction (in ml per 1 liter of water):

• thrips – 10;
• ticks – 2-6;
• young leaf rollers, moths – 6;
• caterpillars – 4;
• aphids on flowers, fruits – 3;
• melon aphid – 8.

In case of mass invasion of a plot, farmers recommend the powerful Iskra M. The chemical kills pests a day after the procedure. To prepare the poison, use a bucket of slightly acidic water to which 5 ml of toxin is added. Consumption for mature trees is 5 liters, for young trees – 2, for bushes – 3. Root crops are treated at the rate of 0.2 ml per 1 sq. m., and melons and vegetables – 0.1. If it rains after the event, then the steps must be repeated.

“Spark” from aphids does not always show a positive effect. To get rid of small pests, you need to remove ants from the area.

Good results are shown by the biological method - ladybugs. If favorable conditions are created, the insects will eat the entire population.

The drug "Iskra" does not immediately kill parasites: the timing of death depends on the species. Colorado larvae die on the 20th day, the thrips colony - within a day. Affected specimens do not harm plants, but can cause death to pollinators. The repeated procedure should not be carried out earlier than after 2-3 weeks. Farmers recommend mechanical collection and disposal of young individuals.

Compatibility with other tools

Insecticides from the Iskra group can be combined with beetle and mite repellents, fungal dressings and growth stimulants. Alkaline-based preparations reduce the effectiveness of the solution and are therefore prohibited for mixing. When combined, the active components precipitate, losing their toxic properties.

Weed killers

"Ground Bio"

Weed-free garden! (5 ml ampoule, 10 ml package, 50 ml tube, 100 ml tube with measuring scale)

"Ground" is a new continuous action herbicide based on glyphosate. Destroys all types of weeds.

"Ground Bio" completely destroys any weeds, including their above-ground and underground parts. Acts on green growing weeds. Once on a plant, Ground Bio penetrates the green leaves and stems of weeds and spreads throughout the entire plant, including the root system. The drug blocks the synthesis of substances in the plant cells, and it dies. Treated weeds turn yellow after 7-14 days, and die off completely after 15-25 days.

Use of the drug "Ground Bio"

The drug "Roundup"

It is used to destroy weeds in tree trunks at a dose of 10 ml per 1 liter of water. Spraying during the weed growing season. Consumption: 5 l per 100 m2. Number of treatments – one.

"Agricola"

"Agricola" is a new environmentally friendly complex fertilizer for foliar and root feeding of plants

The nutrients needed by plants included in Agricola are not applied to the soil like conventional fertilizers, but are easily absorbed directly by the leaves and stems after they are sprayed with an aqueous solution of Agricola. What are the advantages of foliar feeding of plants with Agricola? Since nutrients are supplied through the leaves, the process of their absorption is much more intense and produces results faster!

Firstly, Agricola is highly environmentally friendly; it does not contain heavy metal salts or chlorine. Secondly, Agricola prevents the entry of nitrates into plants. Thirdly, under the influence of foliar feeding, plants become stronger, grow faster, and better resist diseases and external unfavorable factors. There is an improvement in taste and nutritional properties (for example, an increase in the content of vitamin C, carotene, etc.).

Each group of cultures has its own type of “Agricola”. Their composition differs from each other and takes into account the needs of plants. For example, carrots need more potassium, cabbage needs phosphorus, and seedlings need more nitrogen to grow green mass.

Agricola gives an increase in yield in almost all cases. On arid, saline and cold soils, Agricola is simply irreplaceable. In these cases, with its help, the only effective way of feeding plants is realized directly through the leaves and stems.

Now Agricola fertilizers are sold in the form of granules in easily recognizable yellow bags and in bottles in the form of liquid concentrates for feeding not only vegetables, but also berries, fruit trees, and flowers. They can be used from spring to autumn.

“Agricola-1–7” – water-soluble granules:

"Agricola-1"

Types of Spark

Modern plant protection products of systemic action, e.g. biocide against diseases Fitosporin is usually called so that a specialist can immediately understand their origin and/or chemical nature. With Iskra, the situation is completely different: it is just a trade name from the manufacturer (the Technoexport company), behind which lie 4 drugs that are completely unrelated chemically. What they have in common is that all Iskra preparations are “summer-tropical”: they are most effective at temperatures of +25 and above; in the range +18 – +25 no better than analogues; at +18 – +14 they are inferior to them, and below +13 they are not effective. The property, by the way, is very valuable, because... It is at +25 and above that many pests multiply intensively, and other remedies against them lose their effectiveness.

Iskra insecticidal preparations for pests are produced in 4 groups of chemical structure and effectiveness (see figure):

Types of insecticide for plant protection Spark

• Iskra M is the active ingredient malathion. In fact, this clever word means an aqueous emulsion of good old karbofos. With all its properties: smelly, poisonous, takes a long time to be removed from plants, causes addiction to pests. However, Iskra M is not only inexpensive, but in many cases a valuable and very effective drug, see below.
• Iskra Double Effect is based on plant-derived alkaloids permethrin and cypermethrin from the group of pyrethroids, i.e. naturally found in the pyrethrum plant. Both of them are nerve-paralytic poisons of contact-intestinal action, killing prey. sucking and leaf-eating larvae and partly adults (adult stage of arthropods); have no effect on oviposition. Cypermethrin is more of an acaricide (against ticks), and permethrin is an insecticide (against insects).
• Iskra Zolotaya is made on the basis of nicotinoid alkaloids (from tobacco): the main active ingredient is imidacloprid. The action of Iskra Zolotaya is similar to tobacco dust, but stronger, and does not migrate in plants - treatment can be carried out on the eve of harvest.
• The drug Iskra Bio is also available under the name Akarin, i.e. a remedy against ticks, but this is far from its only possible use, see below. The release form is a concentrated emulsion of avertin, a waste product of soil streptomyces (Streptomyces), or radiant fungi. Also does not migrate in plants. An environmentally friendly product, harmless to warm-blooded animals.
