Description of the drug Batrider

Batrider, SK is an insecticide designed to protect plants from a complex of pests:

cluster leaf roller;
whitefish;
apple flower beetle;
Californian scale insect;
different types of aphids;
cotton bollworm;
cabbage moth;
cruciferous flea beetles;
Colorado potato beetle;

Composition and release forms

Batrider is an insecticide of chemical origin. Produced in the form of a suspension concentrate.Packaged in plastic bottles of different volumes, for example, 10 ml.

The manufacturer and registrant of the product is the company “August” (Moscow, Russia). The composition includes three active ingredients:

imidacloprid (at a concentration of 100 g per 1 liter of concentrate);
alpha-cypermethrin (125 g per 1 l);
clothianidin (50 g per 1 l).

Principle of operation

The active substances of the Batrider insecticide belong to the chemical class of neonicotinoids (clothianidin and imidacloprid) and pyrethroids (alpha-cypermethrin). The former suppress the action of the enzyme acetylcholinesterase, disrupt sodium metabolism, which leads to nervous overexcitation against the background of impaired impulse transmission. As a result, the insects die.

Pyrethroids also disrupt sodium metabolism and pest cell membranes. As a result, the concentration of acetylcholine critically increases, which leads to mass death.

The insecticide is a unique preparation based on three active ingredients at once.

Based on the method of penetration, Batrider belongs to the following classes of pesticides:

Intestinal - penetrates along with the juice of the plant being eaten.
Contact - in direct contact with the integument of the body.
Systemic – penetrates the plant tissue, moves through the vessels, from where it enters the pest’s body.

The death of insects is observed already in the first hours after treatment with Batrider. Moreover, the protective effect lasts for at least 14 days. After another 1-2 weeks, repeat spraying may be necessary (if a severe infestation is observed). The waiting period is quite long - 20-30 days. It is better to start harvesting one month after the last treatment.

Reviews about the drug Batrider

Gurieva Svetlana, 54 years old, Ivanovo

Batrider has become the best insecticide for me. Often drugs help first from one beetle, then from another, but it rarely happens “from all of them at once.” But Batrider is an exception in this regard. It copes with almost all pests. I do the treatment in May (on the eve of flowering), this is enough for the whole season.

Polotsky Andrey, 49 years old, Petrozavodsk

Batrider is a powerful and self-sufficient tool. It should not be used in mixtures - this is the only drawback. But the drug is effective and proven. It is universal - you don’t even have to worry about what to spray and what not. It will definitely help.
