Reviews

Andreev: Tanrek is the best remedy for controlling aphids on currants: the pests curl the leaves, and treatment with other drugs is ineffective, but Tanrek copes because it is a systemic drug.

Natalya: I would not say that Tanrek does not drip from the leaves of plants. It still drips, especially from the pubescent ones. But the drug is good, so I add flea shampoo to the solution, which helps Tanrek deal with ticks: I drop 5 ml of shampoo onto a bucket of working solution.

Nikolai: I don’t know a better remedy for the Colorado potato beetle, although I’ve tried everything in my life. Unfortunately, in rainy summers you have to treat potatoes more than once, because the drug is washed off. But next year I will add an adhesive to the working solution. Let's see how it turns out.

Irina: I poisoned the red lily beetle with Tanrek, which was disfiguring the leaves of the lilies, and there was no mention of my pest on the packaging in the instructions. However, the drug worked perfectly.

Tatyana: It’s not true that one treatment with Tanrek per season is enough. Especially during the rainy season. But the drug copes with the beetle better than all other products that I have used in the potato field year after year. So for now Tanrek is a champion for me.

Purpose and application

The drug is widely used in private farms to protect potatoes, cucumbers, tomatoes, flower and ornamental crops to combat a large number of different pests. Among them are aphids, whiteflies, Colorado potato beetles, apple flower beetles, thrips and many others. etc.

In agriculture it is used on wheat and other cereals for protection against harmful bugs and ground beetles, as well as for treating pastures and areas inhabited by locusts.

How to spray

To effectively cultivate potato fields, it is recommended to choose calm weather. The time should be morning or evening so that the sun does not burn the wet potato leaves.

For 100 m2 of field, it is necessary to use 5 liters of Tanrek’s ready-made working solution when spraying. Note that usually one treatment per season is enough, however, if there are a lot of Colorado potato beetles, sometimes repeated treatment is required.

Note that the product can be used not only in the fields, but also in greenhouses when processing tomatoes. The effectiveness of the drug in closed ground is very high. In this case, to treat 100 m2 of soil, it is necessary to use 20 liters of the finished solution. But how to use the most effective remedy for the Colorado potato beetle, and how to choose the necessary one, is outlined in this article.

To spray an apple tree against aphids and flower beetles, you need to use 3-5 liters of the working composition. And for currants (one bush) you need 1 liter of product.

The procedure for treating plants against the Colorado potato beetle is carried out only during their growing season (so that the solution penetrates the tissues and roots). 20 days before harvesting, treatment with Tanrek can no longer be carried out.

Precautionary measures

Since all insecticidal preparations pose a danger to humans, basic precautions must be taken:

Mechanism of action "Tanrek"

"Tanrek", having an acute contact-intestinal effect and pronounced systemic activity. Imidacloprid enters all parts of the plant (leaves, stem and roots) through sap flow and affects the nervous system of harmful insects, blocking nerve connections and suppressing signal transmission through the central nervous system of pests. Insects die from overexcitation, then stop feeding and die within 24 hours.

It is important to note several distinctive features of the drug:

• the drug acts on both adult insects and larvae of different ages;
• unlike pyrethroids, Tanrek reduces its effectiveness at high air temperatures, and is also quite resistant to washing off by rain and exposure to sunlight;
• The mechanism of action of the drug "Tanrek" is different from pyrethroids, organophosphorus compounds, and carbamates, which allows it to be used effectively when alternating insecticides of different chemical classes.

The period of protective action is at least 14 - 21 days after treatment (depending on the pest and crop).

The speed of initial impact is within a few hours after treatment.

Efficiency

The effect of the drug against aphids and whiteflies.
Reviews about Tanrek are positive. Experienced gardeners, novice gardeners and flower lovers share their impressions.

I planted petunia seedlings on the balcony. At one point she began to lose strength, and upon examination she discovered small black bugs. Aphids are like a plague to petunias. It will be devoured in a matter of days. Sprayed with Tanrek. The result is obvious the very next day. Within a week my seedlings came to life.

Irina, Moscow

We have a large garden with cherries, plums, apricots and currants. We always use Tanrek for aphids and whiteflies. Initially it was used after flowering, when parasites were discovered one day. It didn't take long to see the effect. After this, we do everything according to the rules - the first treatment of the garden with the drug in early spring, the second - after harvesting.

Marina, St. Petersburg

Saved indoor plants from aphids. Unbeknownst to me, by the end of summer, pests had multiplied in the flower garden on the windowsill. I sprayed with the windows open and did not take flowers outside. One spray was enough to destroy the aphid colony. To consolidate the effect and protect against re-infection, I treated the flowers with the drug after a month. I poured the remaining solution into the pot and worked the soil.
