Imidacloprid 0.5G, manufactured by Quali-Pro, is an effective granule insecticide that targets and controls soil-inhabiting pests in their adult, larvae, and nymph stages within residential lawns, athletic fields, commercial areas, and more. It offers foliar and systemic control over these pests.

This low-rate insecticide controls a broad spectrum of pests, such as Japanese beetles, in commercial and residential areas. With its active ingredient imidacloprid, this product kills a wide range of soil and plant pests like mole crickets, white grubs, ants, and crane fly larvae.

Imidacloprid 0.5G provides excellent broad-spectrum control over pests at the lowest application rate, making it economical. Its cost-effectiveness, combined with its ability to enhance plant health and prevent crop losses, makes it a valuable choice for both professional growers and home gardeners.

Tools Needed

You will need either a handheld spreader or a push spreader.

How to Use

pushing a spreader

  • Step 1: Determine how much Imidacloprid 0.5G to use by measuring the square footage of the treatment area. To do this, measure the length and width of the treatment area in feet, then multiply them together (length X width = square footage). The typical rate for lawns is 60 to 80 lbs of Imidacloprid 0.5G per acre or 1.4 to 1.8 lb of product per 1000 sq. ft.
  • Step 2: Follow the label for spreader settings and adjust to calibrate your spreader correctly.
  • Step 3: Push the spreader steadily, walking around the perimeter and towards the middle. We suggest overlapping the pattern by 1 to 2 feet to ensure complete coverage.
  • Step 4: Water or irrigate treated areas within 24 hours after applying the granules. This ensures the granules soak into the soil for maximum results.

Where to Use

Imidacloprid 0.5G can be used on residential and commercial turfs, lawns, ornamental gardens, golf courses, parks, sports fields, and other outdoor landscaped areas except for commercial sod farms. Do not spread Imidacloprid .5G in flooded or over-saturated areas, as this will prevent penetration to the root system.

When to Use

It should be applied before or during the period when the target pest is laying eggs. Imidacloprid 0.5% has enough residual activity to allow early planning. The best control would be achieved when applications are followed by adequate rainfall or watering to move the chemical into the soil.

Safety Information

Imidacloprid 0.5G 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 handling and applying this product.

Special Considerations

Imidacloprid 0.5G penetrates the soil and soaks through the root systems of grasses, trees, and plants. This means it requires rain, watering, or some form of irrigation for maximum benefits.

Keith's Pro Tips"If your lawn has dead patches in various areas, and if the lawn can be peeled back like a rug, the culprit is most likely grub worms. They are white, C-shaped larvae that feed on the grass and will eventually mature into beetles. Using Imidacloprid .5G will help control these worms."
