The "Carbophos" agent is one of the oldest, since the Soviet times, preparations for combating pests of all kinds. It is used against small rodents, various insects, mites. From time to time there are outbreaks of pediculosis in places where sanitary and hygienic standards are not observed. In this case, this chemical will save the situation.

Characteristics of the preparation

Let's take a closer look at what Carbofos means. Instructions for use indicate that its active ingredient is malathion, it is poisonous and belongs to the class of organics of phosphorous origin. The drug is a liquid with a strong odor and oily consistency, color - transparent. To large animals and man directly toxic substance "Carbofos" (the instruction on application it specially specifies) special harm does not bring. But in order to avoid accidents and unforeseen poisoning, the drug is issued with a special specific unpleasant odor. Since this substance belongs to a wide range of actions, treatment with "Carbofos" (a drug) is successfully used in the treatment of planting roses, sea buckthorn, lavender, and other useful ornamental ethereal-oil crops.

Scope of application

This pesticide is a mildly toxic substance. But he is panic-stricken with all kinds of aphids, weevils, fruit flies and other gnawing and sucking insects. That is why the preparation "Carbofos", the instruction for use emphasizes this, can be used not only to protect traditional fruit orchards, shrubs and vegetable plantings in our gardens and gardens, but also quite rare citrus plants, as well as grape vines. Pest control is carried out with a solution based on the preparation, which is usually prepared before use. A certain amount of water is added to the product until a uniform suspension is formed in the desired concentration. The solution is carefully sprayed on the plants during the intended incubation period or when pests start to appear. During the processing period, it is important to take into account the weather conditions. So, the substance "Carbofos", the instruction for use strongly recommends spraying in the morning and evening, always in a calm and clear weather. Why is that? At this time, the sun is not aggressive, and evaporation from the drug does not proceed as it happens, for example, at noon. Consequently, the person who produces the spray does not inhale them and will not get poisoned. If you spray plants, when the wind is blowing, the drug does not fall into the right places, but it can spread out to the sides. Consequently, you will not achieve the desired effect. If, after sprinkling, it rains soon, it will all wash away, and the pests will continue to plague you with impunity. How often to apply the chemical "Carbofos" liquid? Instructions for use recommend doing this no more often than twice for each type of crop. During the flowering period and the formation of ovaries, it is forbidden to spray plants, since the preparation can harm the bees actively collecting nectar from flowering plantations. After working with a chemical, you should wash your hands with soap and water.
