HOW TO USE GUIDE PDF

VITIS IGUARD is a premium, broad-spectrum bio-insecticide scientifically formulated for the holistic protection of grape vines. This advanced consortium combines four potent entomopathogenic microorganisms — Verticillium, Beauveria, Metarhizium, and Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) — into a single, powerful pouch. It offers a proactive and sustainable defense against a wide range of sucking, chewing, and soil-dwelling pests, ensuring healthy canopies and blemish-free, high-quality bunches.

Why Choose VITIS IGUARD for Your Grapes?

In the delicate ecosystem of a vineyard, chemical over-reliance can disrupt balance and affect fruit quality. VITIS IGUARD provides a smarter solution:

  • Four-Way Action: Attacks pests through multiple modes — fungal infection, bacterial toxins, and soil colonization — for comprehensive control.
  • Resistance Management: Eliminates the risk of pest resistance, a common problem with single-mode chemical insecticides.
  • Zero Chemical Residues: Ensures your grapes meet the highest safety standards for domestic and export markets, with no pre-harvest interval (PHI) concerns.
  • IPM & Organic Compliance: The cornerstone of any successful Integrated Pest Management (IPM) or organic grape farming program.
  • Safe for Beneficials: Protects pollinators and beneficial insects, promoting a balanced vineyard environment.

Powerful Consortium: How Each Component Works



Strain Target Pests Primary Action
Beauveria bassiana Thrips, Mealybugs, Leafhoppers, Aphids Infects soft-bodied insects through cuticle contact.
Verticillium lecanii Aphids, Whiteflies, Scale Insects Effective in humid conditions; targets sap-sucking pests.
Metarhizium anisopliae Root Grubs, Soil Beetles, Borer Larvae Specializes in soil-dwelling and hard-shelled insect larvae.
Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) Berry Moth Larvae, Leaf Rollers, Caterpillars Produces gut toxins specific to lepidopteran larvae.

Together, they provide a full-season shield from canopy to root zone.


Target Pests in Grapes:

  • Foliar Pests: Grape Berry Moth, Thrips, Leaf Rollers, Aphids, Mealybugs, Jassids
  • Soil Pests: Root Grubs, White Grubs, Termites
  • Boring Pests: Stem Borer larvae

Application Guide (1 Kg Pouch)

Recommended Dosage: 5 to 10 grams per liter of water, depending on pest pressure.
Coverage: 1 Kg pouch can treat approximately 1-2 acres per application.

Methods:

  1. Foliar Spray: The primary method. Spray thoroughly to cover both sides of leaves and bunches. Use during evening hours for best fungal spore viability.
  2. Soil Drenching: Mix with water and drench the root zone to control soil-borne pests and pupae. Ideal during pruning and early season.
  3. Trunk Application: Paint or spray suspension on trunks and cordons to control borers and mealybug colonies.

Frequency: Apply at 10-15 day intervals, starting at first pest sighting or as a preventive during critical growth stages (post-pruning, pre-bloom, berry setting).
