The APVMA’s re-regulation of fenthion and dimethoate has left growers of horticultural crops and their advisors increasingly concerned about how best to control fruit fly in their cropping operations. Dow AgroSciences markets Naturalure™ Fruit Fly Bait Concentrate, a fruit fly bait which is very effective provided it is used appropriately in a whole-of-farm and/or whole-of-area fruit fly management programme. The Naturalure Fruit Fly Bait Concentrate Technical Manual (PDF 0.6MB), recently uploaded onto our website, is intended to help users of Naturalure better manage fruit fly in this time of substantial change within the Horticultural industry. The brochure, Recommendations for Applying Naturalure (PDF 0.2MB), will also be of use to the grower.

If you would like more information, please call this Toll free number : 1800 700 096 and you will be put in contact with a Dow AgroSciences representative who will assist you with your queries.
