In the public consciousness, oil-based preparations are generally associated with early spring wash-off spraying. These are plant oil-based and also contain plant extracts MicrOil <\/a>however, throughout the entire growing season (when the plant has foliage), so It offers an effective solution for controlling mites even in summer<\/strong>, and it can be used safely throughout the entire growing season (whilst the plant is in leaf).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The sunflower oil in this product is produced using a special micro-emulsion process, which means that significantly less of it needs to be applied than with conventional oil-based products. Thanks to this manufacturing technology, the oil dissolves exceptionally well, making it extremely easy to prepare the spray mixture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, in the summer heat, it is advisable to to schedule for early morning or late afternoon<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Combating mites  <\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The prolonged summer drought and the heat are also extremely conducive to an explosive proliferation of mites, the MicrOil <\/a>However, it provides an effective solution for keeping pests at bay during this critical period.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Interesting experimental results demonstrate its effectiveness against mites in the MicrOil<\/a>- in summer herd management.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1. The tomato leaf aphid <\/strong>(Aculops lycopersici<\/em>) In one trial, the product was applied three times at a dose of 2.5 l\/ha as a crop treatment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2714 Efficacy increased gradually after each treatment: after the first treatment 80%<\/strong>-th, after the second 90%<\/strong>-os, and after the third, 95%<\/strong>... was.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2714 Microscopic examinations have confirmed that the spread of the infection foci has been halted the death of the mites was confirmed<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This mite is well known here too; it overwinters in greenhouses and spreads via seedlings. It is invisible to the naked eye, but its presence is indicated by the leaves drying out and the stems taking on a rust-coloured tinge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Effectiveness<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Not only the tomato leaf aphid, but also the citrus weevils<\/strong> proved to be effective even against the MicrOil<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2. Citrus fruit wasps<\/strong> (<\/strong>Eutetranychus<\/em> species) when used on its own in an experiment (at a dose of 3 ml\/l), MicrOil 33% efficiency<\/strong>showed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2714<\/strong> \ud83d\udc9a on its own <\/strong>78% and increased its efficiency to 96%<\/strong> the combined application.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2714<\/strong> Overall, based on the results, it can be said that a significant reduction in population size can be achieved when combined with sulphur.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These pests are specifically found on items that are long-lasting They are most prevalent during warm, hot and dry periods in summer<\/strong>. A characteristic feature of the physiology of mites is that high temperatures and low humidity accelerate their life cycle, leading to a significant increase in population size.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
