Instructions for use of Kleschevit contain a description of the composition, release form, dosage and other important characteristics. The product is used to treat fruit and berry, vegetable, ornamental, and flower plants against various types of mites and many pests, for example, aphids, weevils, scale insects, cutworms. In most cases, the concentration is standard - 2 ml of product per 1 liter of water for spraying 10 m2.
Purpose
Kleschevit is a biological preparation to combat the following types of ticks:
- arachnoid;
- ixodid;
- kidney;
- red fruit;
- Schlechtendahl;
- mealybug.
Tickleworm is often called an insecticide, although this is not entirely correct. It is an acaricide because it is used specifically against ticks (biologically they do not belong to the class of insects). Although it can also be used to protect against common insects, for example:
- aphid;
- codling moth;
- scoop;
- cabbage moth;
- leaf roller;
- weevil;
- scale insect;
- flower thrips;
- cabbage and turnip whites;
- Colorado potato beetle.
The drug Kleschevit is used to protect various plants:
- cucumbers;
- pepper;
- eggplant;
- tomatoes;
- Apple tree;
- currants of different types;
- flowers in greenhouses and in open ground.
Kleschevit is also used to treat indoor flowers against spider mites. At the same time, other means are used to combat insects - insecticides (Biotlin, Fitoverm, Decis).
Composition and release form of the drug Kleschevit
The active ingredient of the drug Kleschevit is aversectin C. This is an organic compound belonging to the class of avermectins. It is of natural origin, as it is synthesized by special strains of bacteria. Therefore, Kleschevit is classified as a biological acaricide and is safe for humans, beneficial insects (bees) and plants.
The drug is produced in the form of a concentrated liquid in ampoules (4 ml each) or in bottles (10 ml each) with a concentration of the active substance of 0.2%. There is also another variety - Kleschevit Super, which contains technical cypermethrin (dosage 25%). It is produced in 100 ml bottles or in the form of convenient 100 ml spray bottles.
The drug destroys both ticks and other harmful insects
Principle of operation
Kleschevit has contact and intestinal effects. The substance enters the pest’s body through direct contact with the body, as well as by eating the juice of the treated plant. Aversectin C affects the nervous system of the tick and quite quickly leads to paralysis.
In the first 8-10 hours, pests lose activity and stop eating plant tissue. Complete death is noted after 2-3 days. The protective effect lasts up to 5-7 days.At the same time, harvesting can begin in 2-3 days. Treatment with Kleschevit is carried out up to three times per season - at the beginning of the growing season, during the formation of buds and, if necessary, at the fruiting stage. In this case, the interval between treatments should be at least seven days.
Therefore, it is better to carry out processing in warm weather. As a last resort, you can work at a minimum temperature of +15 °C.
Advantages and disadvantages
A review of the drug Kleschevit and reviews from gardeners shows that it has quite a few significant advantages.
The chemical is valued for its speed of action; the death of insects occurs within a few hours
Pros:
- effectiveness (total death of ticks after 2-3 days);
- wide range of effects;
- slightly toxic to humans, warm-blooded animals, and bees;
- economic benefit (low consumption);
- short waiting times;
- can be used at the fruiting stage;
- compatible with many drugs.
Minuses:
- the period of protective action is no more than a week;
- the solution does not penetrate the tissue, so pests can return and feed on juices;
- Resistance in spider mites is formed after 3-4 treatments.
Instructions for use of the insecticide Kleschevit
Preparing the solution is quite simple. The instructions are as follows:
- Wear gloves.
- Measure the required volume using a syringe or other method.
- First dissolve in a small amount of water at room temperature.
- To stir thoroughly.
- Bring to total volume and shake again.

It is more convenient to treat large areas using a sprayer
cucumbers
Cucumbers in greenhouses often suffer from spider mites. To destroy them, use a solution of Kleschevit in a ratio of 10 ml per 1 liter. This amount is enough to spray several beds with a total area of 10 m2. Carry out up to three sprayings per season with an interval of at least 20 days. You can start harvesting in 2-3 days.
Tomatoes
The drug Kleschevit is used to treat tomato seedlings. This can be done a few days before transplanting into the greenhouse, garden bed, or immediately after. Repeated spraying is carried out if necessary. The concentration of the solution is the same - 10 ml per 1 liter to treat an area of 10 square meters. Up to three treatments per season are allowed with an interval of 20 days. The harvest can be harvested in 2-3 days.
Apple tree
The drug Kleschevit is used to protect apple trees and other trees from red fruit spider mites and ixodid mites. The latter do not pose a danger to the plant, but can spread infections that are deadly to humans, including encephalitis and borreliosis. Spraying is also carried out to protect against Schlechtendahl ticks.
To obtain a solution, use a dosage of 1.5 ml per 1 liter or 15 ml per 10 liters (standard bucket). Spraying is done in late spring and summer up to three times per season with an interval of 2-3 weeks. At the same time, from 2 to 5 liters are spent on one tree. The application rate depends on the age, size and density of the crown.
Mites for currants
The drug Kleschevit is used against spider mites and bud mites on currants (black, red, white). To do this, prepare a solution based on a dosage of 2 ml per 1 liter. This volume is enough to spray one bush. Up to three treatments are carried out per season.The waiting period before picking berries is two days.
Mites for indoor flowers
Kleschevite is used for orchids and many other flowers, since they can also be damaged by spider mites and some insects. To do this, prepare a solution of standard concentration - 2 ml per 1 liter. This amount is enough for 10 m2 landings, i.e. for all indoor plants. A similar norm is observed when processing flowers growing in a greenhouse.
The product is used to treat orchids and other indoor flowers.
Decorative and floral crops
The drug Kleschevit is also used for spraying flowering crops growing in open ground. In this case, prepare a solution of 2 ml per 1 liter, the specified volume is used to treat 10 square meters of plantings. Number of treatments – up to three per season with an interval of 7-10 days.
Conifers
Kleshchevit can also be used to treat conifers. This is especially true for city parks and squares, where ticks, which are carriers of dangerous diseases, often become active in the spring. The standard concentration of 2 ml per 1 l or 20 ml per 10 l is taken as a basis. 2-5 liters are spent on one tree, depending on the size. Treatment is carried out up to three times per season with an interval of 10 days. It is especially important to do this in April and May.
Compatibility with other tools
Kleschevit is quite well compatible with drugs belonging to the class of organic phosphates (Actellik, Fufanon) or pyrethroids (for example, Talstar). However, it cannot be used in combination with insecticides of the same class (avermectins), for example, with the well-known Vertimek product.
Kleschevit combines well with most fungicides, with the exception of those that give an alkaline reaction (pH greater than 7.0).Therefore, before preparing a tank mixture, it is recommended to conduct a chemical test using indicator paper or a pH meter. The product can also be used in combination with growth stimulants - Epin, Heteroauxin and many others.
Therefore, the drug Kleschevit should be alternated with other acaricides and insecticides.
Security measures
The drug is slightly toxic to humans and bees (in both cases, hazard class 3). Therefore, during processing it is recommended to follow the minimum safety rules:
- Use gloves.
- Do not talk, eat or drink while spraying.
- Exclude children's access.
- Avoid contact with eyes and stomach.
- If the solution gets on your body, wash it off with soap and water.
- In case of contact with eyes, rinse thoroughly under running water.
- If ingested by mistake, chew several tablets of activated carbon and drink plenty of water. In extreme cases, it is necessary to seek medical help.
You must wear a mask when working with chemicals.
The prepared solution is not stored for a long time, so it is prepared in such a volume that it can realistically be used at one time. Vials or ampoules are stored in a wide temperature range - from -20 to +30 degrees in dark places (without direct sunlight). Access for children is excluded.
Analogues of the drug Kleschevit
Analogs of the drug Kleschevit based on the active substance include the following:
- "Inta-Vir";
- "Carbotsin";
- "Lightning Extra";
- "Fitoverm";

Each of them has its own advantages and disadvantages.
Conclusion
Instructions for using Kleschevit are quite simple. The drug is relatively safe, the concentrate dissolves well in water. Up to 2-3 sprayings are carried out per season. It is important to alternate the acaricide with other agents, since otherwise the pests will quickly develop immunity.
