Provado 2.5 PR

Systemic Protection for Your Ornamental Plants

When it comes to maintaining the aesthetic appeal of ornamental crops, there is no room for compromise. The insecticide "Provado 2.5 PR" is a specialized tool designed to combat the most resilient pests that can ruin months of meticulous garden or greenhouse maintenance in just a matter of days.

Efficiency through Systemic Action

The core of the product is imidacloprid, a gold standard in systemic insecticides. Unlike contact-only agents that rely on direct hits, Provado is absorbed into the plant's vascular system. Pests feeding on sap ingest the active ingredient, which disrupts their nervous system. This is crucial for controlling hidden pests that are often missed by standard treatments:

• Aphids and whiteflies;
• Thrips;
• Scale insects;
• Bugs.

Systemic action ensures long-term protection: the product is not washed away by rain and continues to protect new shoots that emerge after the initial application.

Pros and Considerations

The primary advantage of Provado 2.5 PR is its ability to reach pests in dense foliage and hidden spots where spray coverage is difficult to achieve. This makes it an essential choice for thick shrubs and dense floral arrangements. Classified as a Class 3 hazard, it requires standard safety precautions, making it more user-friendly for garden maintenance than high-toxicity alternatives.

It is important to note: due to the systemic nature of imidacloprid, this product is strictly intended for ornamental crops and should not be used on edible plants. Additionally, to prevent the development of pest resistance, it is recommended to rotate Provado with insecticides belonging to different chemical classes.

The production is handled by a consortium of European manufacturers, including Bayer AG, Ekvold Technologies Ltd, Imperial Chemical Logistics GmbH, Bayer SAS, and Shirm GmbH. This distributed manufacturing model ensures rigorous quality control at every stage, setting Provado apart from generic alternatives that often suffer from unstable concentrations of the active ingredient.
