B:seepel<sup>TM</sup> SPIDA
Spider mites are one of the major destructive pests in the field affecting over 150 types of crops. Under hot, dry conditions they can grow at alarming rates. Spider mites ruin foliage by sucking the sap and affect yield and quality of produce. The first signs of spider mite infection are small spider webs or white specks on the leaf surface.
Gradually the leaves turn yellow and fall-off. Heavy infections can even kill plants. The life-cycle under favourable conditions is just about three days.SPIDA is a research product of our DSIR Recognized R & D Centre [Regn No. TU-IV/RDI/2875/2009]

2. Bottle once opened should be used immediately.
3. Non-toxic, environment friendly, residue-free.

Facts:
1. SPIDA is compatible with bio-control agents and biopesticides.
2. SPIDA is compatible with most of the micro-nutrients, fungicides and insecticides in tank mix concentrations. However, a jar test is recommended for testing.
3. Do not freeze the bottle of SPIDA.

Application rates
Foliar spray to wet the leaves on both sides.
1ml/litre when the infection is less than 10%. Use SPIDA at an interval of 15 days. SPIDA can be used for prevention when the environmental conditions favour build-up of spider mite population.
