INVITE* EC Feeding Stimulant for Safer Corn Rootworm Control

INVITE* EC is an inert, emulsifiable concentrate that is mixed with low levels of insecticides (dramatically reduced) to control Corn Rootworm (CRW) Beetles.

INVITING Taste

INVITE* contains a naturally occurring arrestant/feeding stimulant that corn rootworms feed on. Since the CRW beetle ingests the mixture of INVITE* and pesticide, insecticide performance is dramatically enhanced resulting in superior kill rates and accelerated knockdown.

Time Your INVITE*

Application of  INVITE* mixtures immediately prior to egg laying will reduce adult beetle populations and suppress larvael pressure the following year. Also, adult CRW beetle silk clippings, which interfere with pollination, arereduced when using INVITE*. With two properly timed INVITE* plus pesticide applications, soil insecticides can be eliminated. Studies have shown improved root ratings using adult beetle spray techniques.

A Compatible INVITE*

INVITE* controls CRW beetles using organo-phosphates, carbamates, and biologicals. Rotating toxins with INVITE* reduces the risk od resistance buildup. INVITE* is also compatible with full rates of pesticide used to control insect populations other than CRW beetles.

A Select INVITE*

INVITE* mixed with reduced levels of pesticide kills CRW beetles yet allows beneficial insects to survive. The survival of beneficials such as lady beetles, predatory mites, and green lacewig reduces the risk of spider mite flare-ups. Insecticide sensitive honeybees receive minimal exposure of toxin.

Response to INVITE*

Dramatically reduced toxin exposure, superior yield performance and beneficial survival are the promart reasons farmers and crop consultants have chosen award winning INVITE* EC on over 2 million acres.

INVITE* Efficacy

INVITE* at 12oz per acre plus water and then applied at 1-2 gallons per acre provides feeding stimulus for adult CRW beetles. Insecticide added to the spray tank before applying provides the residual insect toxicity. Also, rainfastness is formulated into INVITE* for maximum efficacy in pivot systems.
