Alligare Performance Wetter
Alligare Performance Wetter
Alligare Performance Wetter is a non-ionic organosilicone surfactant designed to increase the efficacy of pesticides or fertilizers. This product will allow the mixed solution to quickly absorb into the plant.
Performance Wetter will significantly improve the spreading and wetting of pesticide solutions which will boost the solution's penetration more effectively and faster. This can be used with most fertilizers and pesticide products.
Tools Needed
To use Alligare Performance Wetter, you will need a sprayer tank filled with diluted pesticide concentrate.
How to Use
- Step 1: In a sprayer of your choosing, mix your selected pesticide with water according to the label directions.
- Step 2: Add Alligare Performance Wetter at a rate indicated on the label which varied depending on the sprayer tank volume.
- Step 3: Test the product out and after making the necessary adjustments, spray as you would normally to the treatment area.
Where to Use
Alligare Performance Wetter is typically used in outdoor pesticide spray applications to get rid of weeds or for fertilizer.
When to Use
Apply Performance Wetter with pesticide or fertilizer when the use of an nonionic surfactant is recommended. This is usually indicated on the label of the pesticide.
Safety Information
Alligare Performance Wetter is safe to use when applied according to label directions. Please have on the proper PPE prior to mixing and applying chemicals.
