TWO BEST OPTIONS FOR
MAXIMUM PERFORMANCE.
COUNTER.
COUNTER Banded
Since 1975, tests by universities
in the Com Belt have shown
COUNTER® systemic insecticide
nematicide to be the top performing
com soil insecticide. COUNTER
controls more major com pests, with
no known resistance, than any other
com soil insecticide on the market.
COUNTER InTurrow
For maximum performance from
your insecticide, put it where it
works hardest. In the seed furrow.
That way, it can’t be blown away
during application, washed away
