If you are nettle by unwanted bugs in the glasshouse , spraying is the obvious solution . But sometimes , this just does n’t work well enough , and you have to seem for another method acting . Dutch agriculturalist , Ron van der Voort of ROVO plant , knows all about it - he had problems with Sciara in the nursery , and spraying was ineffective to eradicate the fly . Hence the decision to use a power fogger .

" This way , we could track the entire greenhouse in mist to tackle the problem good , " say Ron . In the fogger , a mixture was used , alternating between the agents Vertimec and Decis . " The power fogger has helped a lot . you may never get free of it 100 percent , but since we started treat it weekly , the main problem has been solved . "

Taking it all inAn extra vantage of the weekly discussion - the machine is sic in motion in the evening , and after four to five hour of penetration , it ’s done - is that you take everything with you . " Including the leafminers and other pestis , such as aphids , caterpillars , and thrips . "

antecedently , the unwanted guests were sprayed in the greenhouse , but on a blistering summertime ’s twenty-four hours , the substances dry out up so quickly that they can not do their problem properly . " Now we do a everlasting treatment , which also demand get under the foliage , for instance . With the top executive fogger , you really get to grip with every quoin of the greenhouse . That is certainly important with these flies , which like to hide under a mass or in between the plants . "

Full switch to power foggerThe new method acting is so successful that they now only apply the power fogger to control insect - they no longer spray , Ron excuse . " Now , we do need the product because we are treating a gravid area , but if you compare that with the time saved , it ’s easy to calculate . We set up the machine in the middle of a two - hectare segment , and within two hours , the whole orbit is covered with nebuliser , after which the motorcar switches off mechanically . "

Spanish daisiesThanks to the power fogger , Ron ’s Spanish daisies look neat . On he grows bed plants on 4 ha , in a greenhouse where amaryllis used to grow - the delivery season melt from March to June . In September , the first cuttings go in again .
