In the small amount applied (0.6 liters/hectare), the preparation only kills the more sensitive insects, it is not dangerous for warm-blooded animals and humans, and its active ingredient breaks down in a few hours. At the time of the process, it is recommended to collect or cover children’s toys, food, cutlery, and clothes dried outdoors, as well as keep windows and doors closed and turn off artificial ventilation equipment that brings in outside air for the duration of the treatment and for one hour after. It is recommended to wash vegetables and fruits grown in the treated area before consumption or processing.

These should be used to increase efficiency.
