Orthene 97 Spray Insecticide

Orthene Turf, Tree and Ornamental Spray 97 Spray

Orthene 97 Spray Insecticide is a soluble insecticide with 97.4% acephate that is readily absorbed by plant roots and foliage. This absorption provides systemic control of feeding insects. Use Orthene 97 Spray Insecticide on turf, trees, and ornamentals to protect them from various pests. Acephate paralyzes the insect's nervous system and will kill both on contact and penetrate the plant tissue systemically. Within 24 hours, the plant will absorb this chemical, so there is no need to water it. It does have an odor but has a low vapor pressure, as well as low dermal and oral toxicity, and volatility.
