Bacillus thuringiensis var kurstaki (Btk) and abamectin are combines in a biological insecticide in a wettable powder formulation with contact action.
Antario works by producing an endotoxin inside the insect larvae, quickly stopping the insect from feeding and subsequently causing mortality.
Abamectin has contact and stomach action with limited systemic activity, disrupting the electrical activity in nerves and muscles of pests. BTK is effective against various caterpillars, ball worms, and some other insect larvae, while abamectin is used against a range of mites and insects.
Apply when first signs of damage has been seen. Apply every 7 to 10 days until insects have gone. Spray when crop is dry. Re-apply if it rains within 8 hours of spraying. Leave for 3 days after spraying before harvesting.
