Monitor borer control after application and re-treat as required.
BANANA WEEVIL BORER: Application should be made after rain or
irrigation during periods of
high adult borer activity.

coincident rust thrips
control, particularly when application is made when thrips activity is
on the increase usually
beginning September and into the summer months.
