For many years, experienced gardeners and gardeners have been struggling with the insidious and harmful insect - the Colorado potato beetle, but they have not been able to completely destroy it. But there is no need to despair at all, because the research and experiments of scientists over the years have not passed without a trace. Studying the insect, scientists managed to invent a remedy that is capable of infecting the central nervous system of the beetle and thereby prevents it from destroying the crop. This drug is able to protect the plant for the entire growing season if used according to the instructions for use. It is called "Prestige".

What is this remedy? We will try to tell you about it in more detail.

Prestige is a very effective proven remedy for fighting the Colorado potato beetle and other harmful insects. Protects potato tubers from pests and stimulates plant growth.

The product includes pencycuron and imidocloprid... The first compiler is a pesticide and combats fungal diseases. The second is a substance that quickly affects the insect. Thus, the drug, entering the pest's body, quickly affects the nervous system and paralyzes it. Then the insect dies.

The mechanism of action of the agent

So what happens next? The drug, getting into moist soil, begins to act quickly, the substance spreads along the soil around the potato and forms a protective "wall".

When a young plant begins to sprout, it absorbs this agent through the roots, which is evenly distributed around the planted processed potatoes. Then the protective substance rises through the cells of the young shoot and immediately manifests its functions:

  • produces protection against harmful insects during the growing season
  • stops attacks of various fungal diseases
  • helps a young tuber to endure various natural stresses: heat, cold, lack of sunlight

Thanks to these properties of the drug, the plant improves its growth and brings a high yield result. Studies have shown that a poisonous substance, being in a plant, does not sink into new young tubers... Those. the poison is found only around the old planted tuber and in young shoots, it will not get into the new tubers.
