For the control of African Black Beetle, Argentine Stem Weevil, Argentinian Scarab, Billbugs and other insect pests in turf as per the Directions for Use.

ACELEPRYN® is an anthranilic diamide insecticide in the form of a suspension concentrate. ACELEPRYN® delivers excellent preventative performance, with optimal results achieved with application early in the season (mid September) with the appearance of overwintering adult pests. The long residual performance of ACELEPRYN® will provide up to 6 months protection at the higher application rates. Curative control with ACELEPRYN® on pest outbreaks later in the season (mid December onwards) can be achieved using the higher recommended application rates.

Potential for Burn: 

Low

Application Timing, Special Instructions and Rates:  

  • Up to 1/5 L/ha
  • Applications should not be made when the soil is saturated with water because adequate distribution of the active ingredient vertically in the soil profile cannot be achieved under this condition.
  • Prior to mixing, start with clean, well maintained application equipment. Fill spray tank to ¼ to ½ full of water. Measure the amount of ACELEPRYN® required for the area to be sprayed. Add ACELEPRYN® directly to spray tank with the agitation engaged. Mix thoroughly to disperse the insecticide. Once dispersed, the material must be kept in suspension at all times by continuous agitation.
  • Use mechanical or hydraulic means, DO NOT use air agitation, premix or slurry.
  • If spray solution is left standing, ensure thorough re-agitation of the spray mix until fully resuspended. DO NOT allow spray mix to sit overnight, as resuspension may be difficult.
  • African Black Beetle / Argentinian Scarab: ACELEPRYN® may be applied from spring onwards for preventative control of these species infesting turfgrass. The need for an application may be based on historical monitoring of the site, previous records or experiences, current season adult trapping or other Methods.
  • Argentine Stem Weevil / Billbug: ACELEPRYN® should be applied when overwintered adults are first observed in early spring (mid September) to prevent damage in late spring. An application at this time will also give excellent control of African Black Beetle.
  • Caterpillars: ACELEPRYN® will provide excellent curative caterpillar control in turfgrass and should be applied when pests/damage is observed.
  • Immediately following application, thoroughly clean all spray equipment to reduce the risk of forming hardened deposits which might become difficult to remove. Drain spray equipment. Thoroughly rinse sprayer and flush hoses, boom and nozzles with clean water.
  • Clean all other associated application equipment.Take all necessary safety precautions when cleaning equipment. DO NOT clean near wells, water sources or desirable vegetation. Dispose of waste rinse water in accordance with local regulations.
