APOLLO REGISTERED FOR APPLES IN NEW YORK


Apollo ovicide/miticide has been registered for use on apples in New York.
Apollo is a selective ovicide that controls mites while they are still in the egg stage. Its targets are the European red mite, two-spotted spider mite and other mites, according to Scott Dunham, market manager for AgrEvo USA.
Due to its low toxicity, Apollo requires no special handling or use precautions. Apply in 50 to 400 gallons of water per acre with standard ground equipment. The company suggests a rate of four ounces per acre.
Apollo is compatible with most commonly used insecticides and fungicides.
