How to Use Bayer Fame Insecticide:
Shake the Bayer Fame insecticide bottle well before opening to mix the active ingredient evenly.
Wear gloves and a face mask before measuring the product.
Measure the right quantity using a marked cup or syringe.
Half-fill the spray tank with clean water and pour in the measured product slowly.
Add the remaining water and stir until the solution looks uniform.
Use a fine-mist or hollow-cone nozzle for proper coverage.
Spray during calm weather, covering both upper and lower leaf surfaces.
Use 150 to 200 litres of water per acre for full canopy coverage.
Best Time to Apply:
Spray this insecticide at the early stage of caterpillar activity — when small worms are just starting to feed, or when adult moths are seen actively laying eggs in the field. Because Fame Insecticide has ovi-larvicidal action, spraying just before or right after peak egg-laying gives the strongest results. Late afternoon or early evening is the best window, as leaf temperature is cooler and product retention on the leaf is stronger.
Frequency of Application and Re-entry Period:
Frequency: 1 to 2 sprays per crop cycle at 15- to 20-day intervals — the long residual of Fame Insecticide means fewer sprays compared to older caterpillar-only products.
Re-Entry Period: Wait at least 12 to 24 hours after spraying before re-entering the treated field without protective clothing.
Compatibility: Fame mixes well with most common fungicides, insecticides, and water-soluble fertilizers. Avoid mixing with strongly alkaline products like Bordeaux mixture, lime sulfur, or high-pH copper sprays, and always run a small jar test 24 hours before a new tank-mix combination.
Safety, Precautions and Handling:
Wear hand gloves, face mask, and protective eyewear while handling the product.

Wash hands and exposed body parts with soap and water after use.
In case of accidental ingestion, contact a doctor immediately with the product label.
