Tracer Green Insecticide is a bit different from the other products we've discussed! It's not actually an insecticide itself, but rather a spray indicator dye. This means it's a concentrated green colorant that you add to your pesticide, fertilizer, or growth regulator sprays.1
Here's how it works:
When you mix Tracer Green with your spray solution, it gives the liquid a bright green color. This allows you to easily see where you've already sprayed, ensuring thorough and uniform coverage while minimizing skips and overlaps.2
Key Features and Benefits:
Highly Concentrated: A little goes a long way! It's very concentrated, so you only need a small amount per gallon of spray mix.3
Non-Staining: It's designed to be non-staining, so you don't have to worry about permanent marks on your equipment or surfaces.4
Improved Accuracy: Helps you achieve more precise and consistent spray applications.
Reduced Waste: By avoiding overlaps and skips, you use your spray solutions more efficiently, saving money and reducing potential environmental impact.5
Versatility: Can be used with a wide range of spray applications, including pesticides, fertilizers, and growth regulators.6
Usage:
The amount of Tracer Green you use depends on the desired color intensity. Typically, 4-12 ounces per 100 gallons of water is recommended. Start with a higher rate for the initial application, then adjust in subsequent applications to achieve your desired color density.7
Important Note:
Always read and follow the instructions on the product label for specific mixing and application guidelines.
While Tracer Green is generally non-staining, it's always a good idea to test it on a small inconspicuous area first, especially on sensitive surfaces.
Tracer Green is a simple yet valuable tool that can significantly improve the accuracy and efficiency of your spray applications. By providing a visual guide, it helps ensure that your treatments are applied evenly and effectively, maximizing their performance and minimizing waste.
