Vantacor has some contact activity, but it is most effective through ingestion. Anti-feeding activity. Insects typically die within 1-3 days of feeding. Translaminar and foliar systemic (moves to new leaves). Soft on many predatory insects. The minimum interval between treatments is 5 days. Make only two consecutive applications of Group 28 insecticides (e.g., Vantacor, Exirel, Voliam Flexi) before rotating to an insecticide with a different MOA. A similar product, Coragen, is less concentrated with a different use rate. Similar products with chlorantraniprole are available, including package mixes, but use and use rates vary.

2 Efficacy ratings denote the relative ability of a pesticide to control its target. The ratings are E = excellent, G = good, F = fair/suppression; P = poor, and ND = no data. Efficacy ratings are based on the inherent toxicity of the pesticide against its target, the likelihood that the target will contact or ingest the product as applied, duration of impact on the target, and undesired effects, such as negative impacts on natural enemies that could lead to future pest outbreaks.
3 Rate per acre per application. Refer to the product label for maximum use rate per season.
4 Reentry interval.
5The minimum pre-harvest interval. Some products do not list PHI.
Note: always read and follow the directions on the pesticide label.

| Tuberworm (Phthorimaea operculella) | 28 | E | 1.2-2.5 fl oz | 4 h | 14 d | Target PTW larvae feeding in the canopy in the weeks prior to vine desiccation or harvest. PHI is 14 days. For best results, chemigate in 0.1-to-0.2-acre inches of water and add MSO at 12 to 16 fl. oz. per acre. Foliar sprays may not provide adequate control of larvae in the mid to lower canopy. |
