Plan your next step
- What does it target?
- Aphids, Mealybugs & scale insects
- Where might it fit?

Discuss your crop and production setting with a specialist to confirm suitability.
- Which conditions matter?

- What should I confirm before ordering?
- Some source rate details require clarification. Ask Anatis to confirm the introduction program; no disputed rates are reproduced here. Confirm the supplied format, quantity, release timing and delivery schedule.
