Kontos should be used to
-
Control well-established infestations
-
Prevent low infestations from increasing
-
No difference. Kontos can do both
Correct Answer
A. Prevent low infestations from increasingExplanation
Kontos should be used to prevent low infestations from increasing. This means that Kontos is effective in stopping the growth and spread of infestations that are at an early stage or have not yet become severe. It is not specifically designed for controlling well-established infestations, although it may still have some impact on them. Therefore, using Kontos is recommended as a preventive measure to stop infestations from getting worse rather than as a solution for already established infestations.Rate this question:

When sprayed, the REI for Kontos is
-
4 hours
-
12 hours
-
24 hours
-
48 hours
Correct Answer
A. 24 hoursExplanation
The REI (Re-entry Interval) for Kontos when sprayed is 24 hours. This means that after the application of Kontos, it is safe for people to re-enter the area where it was sprayed after 24 hours. This time interval allows for the pesticide to dissipate and reduces the risk of exposure to humans.Rate this question:

Kontos is more effective against
-
Adults
-
Immature stages
-
Kontos is equally effective against all life stages
Correct Answer
A. Immature stagesExplanation
Kontos is more effective against immature stages because it specifically targets and controls the development of pests in their early life stages. This means that it can effectively eliminate pests in their larval or nymph stages, preventing them from reaching adulthood and reproducing. By targeting the immature stages, Kontos can disrupt the pest population's life cycle and effectively control their numbers.Rate this question:

Against most pests, the speed of Kontos activity
-
Almost immediate, 1-2 days
-
Few days, 3-4 days
-
Slow, 7-14 days
Correct Answer
A. Slow, 7-14 daysExplanation
The correct answer is "Slow, 7-14 days." This means that Kontos takes a longer time to show its activity against most pests compared to the other options. It may take up to 7-14 days for Kontos to effectively control pests, indicating a slower speed of action.Rate this question:

Correct Answer
A. Primarily an insecticide that can also control spider mitesExplanation
Kontos is primarily an insecticide that can also control spider mites. This means that its main purpose is to target and eliminate insects, but it is also effective in dealing with spider mites. While it may have some fungicidal properties, its primary function is as an insecticide.Rate this question:

Kontos mode of action is
-
Juvenile hormone mimic
-
Acetylcholinesterase inhibitor
-
Lipid biosynthesis inhibitor
-
Chitin synthesis inhibitor
Correct Answer
A. Lipid biosynthesis inhibitorExplanation
Kontos is a lipid biosynthesis inhibitor. This means that it interferes with the process of lipid production in organisms. Lipids are essential components of cell membranes and play a crucial role in various biological processes. By inhibiting lipid biosynthesis, Kontos disrupts the normal functioning of cells and can have detrimental effects on the organism. This mode of action is different from the other options provided, such as juvenile hormone mimic, acetylcholinesterase inhibitor, and chitin synthesis inhibitor, which target different biological processes.Rate this question:

The current Kontos formulation is
-
Granular (G)
-
Wettable powder (WP)
-
Suspension concentrate (SC)
-
Emulsifiable concentrate (EC)
Correct Answer
A. Suspension concentrate (SC)Explanation
The given answer, Suspension concentrate (SC), is the correct formulation for the current Kontos product. Suspension concentrates are formulations where the active ingredient is suspended in a liquid medium. This type of formulation provides better stability and dispersibility of the active ingredient, allowing for easier application and absorption by plants. It also reduces the risk of clogging spray equipment. Therefore, the use of a suspension concentrate formulation like SC is suitable for the Kontos product.Rate this question:
