Imidacloprid 2F Insecticide
12/10/25
Imidacloprid 2F Insecticide, manufactured by Quali-Pro, is a systemic insecticide spray that works systemically and moves through the foliage to the roots of treated vegetation so that targeted insects like grubs that feed on the plants will die.
Imidacloprid 2F can be applied with various spray equipment to treat small residential areas or large turfs. Imidacloprid 2F provides fast and continuous control against insects such as European crane flies, aphids, and more.
Tools Needed
You will need a backpack sprayer, handheld pump sprayer, hose-end sprayer, or professional skid sprayer. We recommend using the handheld pump sprayer when applying to small lawn areas.
How to Use
- Step 1: Determine how much Imidacloprid 2F you need by measuring the square footage of the treatment area. To do this, measure the treatment areas' length and width in feet, then multiply them together (length X width = square footage). For general-purpose turf applications, you can apply Imidacloprid 2F at a rate of 0.46 to 0.6 fl. oz. in a gallon of water per 1,000 sq. ft. So, for example, if you calculated a 3,000 sq. ft. area for treatment you would need to mix 1.38 to 1.8 fl. oz. of Imidacloprid 2F in 3 gallons of water.
- Step 2: Fill the spray tank with 1/2 gallon of water in a sprayer of your choice. Shake the concentrate well before adding the correct amount of Imidacloprid 2F to the tank. Fill the tank the rest of the way and then agitate the sprayer. When the product is well-mixed, you are ready to spray.
- Step 3: Spray the Imidacloprid 2F solution evenly on areas where treatment is needed. Reapply when needed. Use a fan nozzle spray setting for uniform coverage.
Where to Use
Imidacloprid 2F is ideal for turfs and ornamental lawns in residential and commercial areas. It can be applied to business and office properties, shopping complexes, multi-family residential complexes, golf courses, airports, cemeteries, parks, playgrounds, athletic fields and sod farms.
When to Use
Use when insect pests are infesting your turf and ornamentals. Most favorable control will be achieved when applications are made before the egg hatchs of the target pests. Apply on calm days when wind speeds are low to minimize the risk of drift.
Apply when temperatures are below 55 degrees Fahrenheit.
Safety Information
Imidacloprid 2F is safe to use around children and pets when applied according to the product label instructions. Always wear the proper personal protective equipment (PPE) when mixing or applying this product.
Do not allow children or pets to enter the treated area until the sprays have dried.
Special Considerations
Imidacloprid 2F can be applied in various ways for broad-spectrum control, but you must not exceed 1.6 pints (0.4 lbs of active ingredient) per acre per year. The systemic nature of this product makes for effective control, but it can harm bees. Imidacloprid 2F cannot contact plants in bloom if bees are in or around the treatment area.
