BioNex is a broad-spectrum, natural pyrethrum-based contact insecticide that delivers rapid knockdown of pests and is well-suited for organic and conventional programs. Featuring multiple modes of action, pyrethrins disrupt insect sodium channels for fast control, while canola oil acts as a smothering agent and spreader. It has minimal environmental persistence when applied according to label directions and breaks down quickly.
- Suitable for a wide range of plant and crop use
- Controls adults, larvae, and eggs to help stop future outbreaks before they start
- Complex mode of action quickly eliminates pests feeding on your plants
- Can be applied to edible crops right up to the day of harvest for flexible pest management

- Do not water the treated area to the point of runoff.
- Do not apply this product through any type of irrigation system.

ENVIRONMENTAL CONSIDERATIONS:
This product is toxic to aquatic organisms including fish and invertebrates. To protect the environment, do not allow pesticide to enter or run off into storm drains, drainage ditches, gutters or surface waters. Applying this product in calm weather when rain is not predicted for the next 24 hours will help to ensure that wind or rain does not blow or wash pesticide off the treatment area. Rinsing application equipment over the treated area will help avoid runoff to water bodies or drainage systems. This product is highly toxic to bees exposed to direct treatment on blooming crops or weeds. Do not apply this product or allow it to drift to blooming crops or weeds while bees are actively visiting the treatment area.
PHYTOTOXICITY:
Oil removes the glaucous (blue) bloom from such evergreens as Colorado blue spruce and Koster spruce. Use a 1% solution on oil sensitive plants such as: Chamaecyparis, Cryptomeria, Japanese Holly, Red Cedar and Smoke Tree. Use care on blooms and buds. If concerned about sensitivity of plants, test spray a portion of the plant and wait several days to determine if burn occurs before spraying larger areas.
MIXING:
For 2% solution, mix 2 parts concentrate with 98 parts water. For 1% solution, mix 1 part concentrate with 99 parts water. For soft-bodied pests such as aphids and mites, use 1% solution. Agitate well before each use and agitate diluted spray frequently during use.
- Add sufficient water to the mixing tank to allow proper agitation by pump or paddles.
- Continue stirring while adding first the BioNex Insecticide and Miticide then the remaining water.
- Continue to stir throughout use.
- If using equipment without pump or paddle, shake often during use.
- Flush fluid in sprayer hose lines back into the tank if the solution has remained unstirred for more than 20 minutes.
