Flagship 25WG Insecticide
Flagship 25WG Insecticide
Flagship 25 WG Insecticide is manufactured by Syngenta and is designed to control plant sap-sucking and chewing pests found on landscapes, croplands, soil and ornamentals. It has shown to be especially good in controlling infestations of aphids, thrips, whiteflies and other similar pests that damage plant life.
The active ingredient in Flagship is Thiamethoxam and the product works systemically by being taken up into a treat plant down to the root to protect the plant from infestation. Pests will stop feeding on the treated plant and eventually die from the affects of the insecticide.
Tools Needed
Flagship 25WG is a water dispersible granule insecticide that will make you between up to 100 gallons worth of spray. To use it you will need either a hose end sprayer, handheld pump sprayer, backpack sprayer, or spray rig.
How to Use
- Step 1: Fill your sprayer tank halfway with water then add the required amount of herbicide to the tank. Depending on the insect you are trying to treat you can apply anywhere from 2 to 8 ounces per 100 gallons.
- Step 2: Replace the cap and agitate by shaking the sprayer. Add the remaining water required then repeat agitation until insecticide solution is thoroughly mixed.
- Step 3: Apply product to plants, making sure you coat the plant uniformly. You may need to occasionally agitate the sprayer during use to ensure even coverage.
- Step 4: Reapply as needed every 7-28 days until there is no more plant damage and the insects are all gone.
Where to Use
Flagship 25WG can be used on commercial and residential ornamental plants, shrubs, turf, trees, greenhouses and nurseries to control plant damaging insects.
When to Use
Use Flagship 25WG when sap-sucking pests first appear or you notice plant damage. See the label for more tips on timing your application.
