USE SUMMARY
Minx™ 2 is a microemulsion which when mixed with water according to the directions, will control leafminers and mites and suppress whiteflies, thrips and aphids on ornamentals. Mix with sufficient water and apply as a foliar spray to obtain uniform coverage.
FOR MITES
Apply when mites first appear and repeat as necessary to maintain control.
FOR LEAFMINERS
Apply as needed and repeat at 7-day intervals or as necessary to maintain control.
FOR SUPPRESSION OF APHIDS, THRIPS AND WHITEFLIES
Apply when young, immature stages of these pests are first observed and repeat every 7 days for two or three weeks. After which time, rotate to other products that have different modes of action than Minx 2 for at least two to three weeks. Aphids, thrips and whiteflies are killed by direct contact with the Minx 2 spray. Residual control of pests may be enhanced with the addition of a horticultural spray oil at 0.5 to 1.0% of the spray volume on woody ornamentals and landscape plants. Some plants are sensitive to oils, the user should spray a small number of plants and observe plants for two weeks before spraying the remaining plants. Repeat application as necessary, but no sooner than 7 days to maintain control. Excessive cold or warm temperatures may increase the chance of plant damage following application with oils.
