Colorado beetles active in potatoes again

June 15, 2017

As a result of the warm weather, Colorado potato beetles are very abundant in the potatoes, not to mention also in potato storage.

Given the nice weather, these Colorado beetles will soon start laying eggs. If the temperature remains above 20 degrees, the first larvae will be present after about 10 days. There is also a very high chance that the lice population will increase.

Fight in time
Colorado beetles must be combated in good time to prevent unnecessary and irreparable damage by eating. Of Calypso all stages of the Colorado potato beetle as well as all lice species present are controlled. The dosage is 0,15 l/ha.
