When weevils hit your fields, thi
chew your profits to the bone Y
need the long-lasting protection
you can get with Furadan msecti
nematiode. Spraying your alfalf
when weevils hit will protect
it until cutting, and help the
regrowth, too.
Other sprays simply don't last
as long as Furadan And Furadan 4F not
only kills weevils, it also controls potato
