          Acelepryn

          Powered by the active ingredient chlorantraniliprole, AceleprynĀ® insecticide provides excellent, season-long grub control with a single (8-16 fl oz/A) application in April or May. But Acelepryn is more than just outstanding grub control. That same application for grubs will control many key surface feeding pests including several species of caterpillars as well as annual bluegrass weevil (ABW). For ABW, apply 12–20 fl oz/A, which will provide an even broader spectrum of effective control.

          View product >
          Ference

          FerenceĀ® insecticide contains the active ingredient, cyantraniliprole, which will raise the bar on season-long control of ABW (annual bluegrass weevil). Since Ference systemically controls all larval stages, it provides superintendents greater flexibility later in the year when ABW populations are asynchronous. Ference also controls billbugs, European crane flies, white grubs, turf caterpillars and suppresses chinch bugs.

          Provaunt WDG

          European crane flies, annual bluegrass weevil (ABW), turf caterpillars (including armyworms, cutworms and sod webworms) and mole crickets all pose a significant threat to turf. ProvauntĀ® WDG insecticide controls all of these pests and more to protect your turf and landscape ornamentals.
