Soil insecticide for the control of wireworm and PCN in potatoes

Mocap 10g (Ethoprophos) is an effective treatment for wireworm in potatoes. It is also effective against PCN, especially on sandy and silt soils. It is best used within a program of IPM that includes risk assessment, rotation, ploughing and good variety choice. A baiting system can be used to detect wireworm populations which is cheap, simple to use and highly effective in arable rotation.
