- Use Information
APPLAUD® Insect Growth Regulator is effective against the nymphal stages of whiteflies, scales, mealybugs, planthoppers, and leafhoppers by inhibiting chitin biosynthesis, suppressing oviposition of adults, and reducing viability of eggs. APPLAUD is not an adulticide. Evidence of activity may be slower than typical contact insecticides as treated susceptible pests may remain alive on the plant for 3 - 7 days; however, pests have stopped feeding and any feeding damage during this time is typically very low.. APPLAUD is a contact insecticide so thorough spray coverage is essential. Apply by ground or air in sufficient water volume. Orient nozzles to ensure good coverage. Use of higher volume of water will ensure better coverage, especially under adverse conditions such as hot, dry weather, and/or a dense canopy. The entire field should be treated. Apply when economic infestations occur based on local information.
