Apply to the foliage and fruit oftrees.Continue to monitor beetle numbers and if necessaryreapply VENOM 100 EC up to 1 day before harvest or useanother insecticide registered for this purpose.Apply no more than 2 applications per season.There must be a minimum of 10 days between the retreatmentand the initial application.Apply the same total amount of product to the target cropwhether applying this product by dilute or concentratespraying methods.DO NOT use at rates greater than 100 mL per 100 L of waterwhen using concentrate spraying.Cultural control methods (eg. destruction of fallen fruit bymulching) should be used to prevent excessive build up ofCarpophilus Beetle.Seasonal ProgramTwice per year Timing: Apply in October/November (Spring/early Summer) and March/April (lateSummer/Autumn).Use the higher rate (concentration) when borer pressureor damage is high.Once per year TimingApply in October/November OR March/April.Monitoring Program: Monitor Weevil Borer populationscarefully by trap counts and/or corn damage ratings,beginning in September when pest activity is on theincrease and continue until April. Apply treatment whenBanana Weevil Borers reach or exceed acceptablethreshold levels. Monitor borer control after applicationand re-treat as required.Banana Weevil Borer: Application should be made afterrain or irrigation during periods of high adult borer activity.Banana Rust Thrips: Application against banana weevilborer will give coincident rust thrips control particularlywhen application is made when thrips activity is on theincrease usually beginning September and into theSummer months.Application MethodStool Treatment Program: Remove trash from the base ofstools and apply 500-750 mL of spray solution to each stool,depending on stool size. Treat the bottom 30 cm of eachstool as well as the soil in a 30 cm band around each stool,ensuring thorough treatment of both butt(s) and follower(s).Use the lower spray volume of 500 mL on small stools lessthan 50 cm across the entire base.Band Treatment Application: Apply as a band applicationwith a side delivery boom and offset nozzles on both sidesof the row with the spray pattern positioned to spray 30 cmof soil on either side and 30 cm in height. Aim to apply atotal spray volume of 1 L/stool area. For single sucker rowconfigurations apply 28 L of solution per 100 metres of rowin a band 0.5 m wide on each side of the row overlapping inthe centre. For double sucker row configurations apply 56 Lof solution per 100 metres of row in a band 1 m wide oneach side of the double row with the spray patternoverlapping between the rows.40 mL/100 L Monitor mite population and old leaves particularly duringhot dry conditions.Apply VENOM 100 EC as a preventative rather than acurative treatment before damage occurs, and before mitenumbers build up to damaging levels.Follow-up applications may be required at 10-14 dayintervals. Thorough coverage of the lower leaf surface isessential to ensure good control. Use a total spray volumeof 300-500 L/ha.Venom 100 EC Page 2 of 6
