“Commander, VRK” / “Commander Maxi, VDG” / “Commander Plus”


Purpose and effect of the insecticide Komandor

Commander systemic insecticide is designed to combat leaf-eating and sucking pests.

The drug Commander is intended to combat various types of leaf-eating and sucking pests on potato, tomato, cucumber crops, as well as on flower crops.

"Commander" enters plants through leaves, stems and roots. Once in the body of the pest, the insecticide blocks the functioning of its nervous system, as a result of which the insect stops feeding, moving and ultimately dies.

The “Commander” drug remains on the surface of the treated crop, remaining toxic to new larvae emerging from old egg clutches.

Purpose

“Commander” insecticide is primarily used to protect potatoes from the Colorado potato beetle and vegetable crops in protected and open ground from whiteflies and aphids. It is also used to cultivate pastures and meadows.

“Commander” is also used for treating planting potato tubers from wireworms and planting seeds of corn, sunflower, etc. The line of preparations includes a special drug “Commander Plus” for special treatment of potato tubers before planting to protect against wireworms, mole crickets and Colorado potato beetles, enhanced with a stimulant .

Product effectiveness

The high effectiveness of the drug “Commander” is ensured by the active substance imidacloprid. It belongs to neonicotinoids - strong organic poisons. The share of the active substance in the produced drug is 200 g per 1 liter.

As a result of the action of imidacloprid, a systemic failure in the transmission of nerve signals occurs in the pest’s body. At first, the insects go into convulsions, then irreversible paralysis occurs, after which the pests die. Complete cleansing of treated crops occurs within a day or less.

“Commander” is also effective in combating pests living inside the soil: beet chips, click beetles and other species.

Mechanism of action

After spraying, Commander is quickly absorbed by all parts of the plant - leaves, stems, roots. Pests, in contact with vegetative parts or when eating them, absorb the active substance, which leads to blocking the normal functioning of the nervous system, immobilizing the pest and its further death.

Already in the first hours after treatment, the population of various pests will be destroyed. Complete purification of the cultures occurs within a day. Commander does not cause pest resistance to its active substance, which makes the product unique in its own way.

The period of protective action of the Commander insecticide is at least 2 weeks.

Instructions for use of the drug Commander

The solution for treating plants with “Commander” is made up as follows: an ampoule of the drug (1 ml) is first diluted in a small volume of water, then, stirring, the volume of the solution is increased to 2 - 10 liters. Plants should be treated during the growing season. During the flowering period, the drug should be used with caution.

Important! To treat plants, only fresh solution is used, wetting the leaves as evenly as possible on both sides. Storing the prepared solution is strictly prohibited.

When spraying crops, it is necessary to use personal protective equipment. Treatment should be carried out in clear and windless weather, in the morning or evening.

Plants can be treated with Commander no more than once every 15 days.

Instructions for use of the drug Commander

To combat the Colorado potato beetle in potato plantings, 5 liters of working solution are used per 100 square meters of crops. When controlling pests on cucumbers, tomatoes, and flower crops, 1 liter of working solution is consumed per 10 square meters. m..

The effect of the drug begins within 90 minutes. Preventive treatment can be carried out after 20-30 days. In addition, duplicate spraying after rain is justified - “Commander” can be washed off from plant leaves. The drug does not cause chemical burning of stems and foliage if the recommended dosage is not exceeded.

Compatibility with other drugs and analogues

Commander can be used in conjunction with other drugs, even those with similar effects. Its effect is not reduced by joint treatment of the crop with growth regulators, other fungicides and insecticides. The fungicide should be used with caution only in combination with drugs that give an alkaline reaction. Alkali reduces the effect of the main substance, which significantly reduces the effectiveness of the treatment.

Commander has several analogues on the market:

  • Anti-Colorado;
  • Youombardir Aqua;
  • Confidor extra.

If the Commander himself could not be found in the store, then he can easily be replaced by the above means, and the culture will be saved. The preparations have insecticidal properties and will help destroy even large colonies of beetles.

Security of the product

The drug “Commander” has the third class of danger for humans, that is, moderately dangerous. At the same time, the insecticide is very dangerous for bees (hazard class 1). Therefore, it is fundamentally important to limit the number of bees for 4-5 days after spraying. The border zone is 5 kilometers from the place where the drug is used. “Commander” is toxic to fish, so its use in fishery zones is prohibited.

You should alternate the use of Komandor and other insecticides to prevent the development of drug resistance in pests.

Svetlana. An excellent product for killing pests on tomatoes and cabbage. I tried to cultivate a small area of ​​a potato field, there were no more Colorado potato beetles on it, the potatoes grew excellent. I didn’t treat the neighboring area; the beetle did a lot of damage there.

Full description of the insecticide

The action of the Commander is based on a special substance – imidacloprid. After applying the product to plants, it accumulates inside for 2 hours, and the effectiveness itself lasts for a period of 21 to 30 days. The insects eat the poison along with the green leafy mass, and then after a few hours complete paralysis occurs in the beetle’s intestines, causing the pest to immediately die. Most of the beetles die during processing. There is no need to repeat the process.

The insecticide is effective against both mature individuals and their eggs. To completely get rid of the Colorado potato beetle, it will take from a couple of days to several weeks, it all depends on the scale of the infestation and the number of colonies. In addition to the Colorado potato beetle, with the help of the Commander you can fight several other types of pests:

  • whiteflies;
  • fleas;
  • flies;
  • aphids;
  • leaf roller;
  • bedbugs;
  • wireworm;
  • thrips;
  • whitefly.

The following crops are treated with the Commander:

  • pumpkin;
  • root vegetables;
  • Solanaceae;
  • legumes;
  • cereals.

In addition to the destruction of various pests, the product has a protective ability. The composition contains nutritional components - minerals. They accelerate the germination of the crop, promote its active growth and further development. Even if the plant has already been attacked by the Colorado potato beetle, but was treated in a timely manner, the negative effect of the pest on the crop will be minimal.

How to fight aphids in the garden?

To choose the correct and effective control method, you need to understand where this pest comes from in the garden and what its biological characteristics are. Scientists know of 3,000 species of aphids, which are capable of infecting not only garden crops, but also cacti; combating them cannot be avoided. The insect has an elliptical body with a transparent cover; it not only crawls, but also jumps.

Treating the garden against aphids in the spring involves several different methods. For example, if the level of infestation of plants in the area is high, spraying is more suitable for control; the use of folk remedies is safer for the environment; if insects appear in the garden area from time to time, repelling can be used. Experts say that the choice of method for controlling aphids in the garden depends on the specific situation.

Types of aphids on garden trees

The most famous varieties of aphids in the garden:

  • cherry;
  • pear-umbrella (green and brown);
  • peach;
  • apple;
