GENERAL INFORMATION

FORBID 4F is a Flowable (Suspension Concentrate) formulation that is intended for control of mites and whiteflies on ornamental plants, flowers and foliage plants. The active ingredient contained in FORBID 4F is active on all mite development stages. However, mite juvenile stages are often more susceptible than adults. Application should be timed to coincide with early threshold levels in a developing mite population.

FORBID 4F is also highly effective against whitefly nymphs, plus it has a significant effect on the otherwise difficult to control pupal stage. For best results against whitefly, applications should target these life stages.

FORBID 4F can be applied by ground equipment. However, thorough coverage of all plant parts is required for optimum performance. Performance evaluations should be made 4 – 10 days after application.

Apply specific dosage of FORBID 4F as needed for control. For best results, uniform coverage of the upper and lower leaf surfaces is recommended. Avoid excess application that results in runoff from plant foliage. An adjuvant may be used to improve coverage on hard to wet foliage. For best results, the treatment should be made when whitefly or mite population begins to build and before a damaging population becomes established. Rate range is provided and is generally dependent on size of the plant and density of the foliage.
