The Colorado potato beetle was spotted very late, when there was a real threat of being left without winter food supplies. It was necessary to act quickly, and we decided to buy a proven Regent. Processing had to be carried out 2 times, but the result was worth it.The effectiveness of the tool is top notch.
Raisa, Moscow
The average tool at the average price and with average efficiency I do not know why, but one treatment was not enough. Moreover, the beetles did not notice the presence of poison at all. Re-processing was able to somewhat reduce the number of pests on potatoes, but did not completely solve the problem.
