Pesticides are often diluted twice to ensure better solubility, especially for wettable powders that are difficult to dissolve or for pesticides used in small quantities. This method helps the pesticide mix more evenly, improves accuracy in measurement, enhances the effectiveness of application, reduces the risk of crop damage, and minimizes the danger of exposure to concentrated pesticide.
**How to Perform Pesticide Secondary Dilution:**
Use a medical saline bottle with clear volume markings. Place the pesticide inside, add the appropriate amount of water to create a concentrated solution (mother liquid), then measure the required amount with a measuring cup for use.
When using a backpack sprayer, you can perform the secondary dilution directly in the tank. First, add a small amount of water into the tank, then add the appropriate amount of the pesticide solution, shake well, and then fill the rest of the tank with water before mixing thoroughly.
For large-scale applications using motorized spraying equipment, it's recommended to first prepare a primary dilution in a larger container such as a bucket or barrel. Then, during the second dilution, transfer the mixture into the sprayer’s tank, mix well, and apply as needed.
To ensure the quality of the diluted pesticide, it is important to accurately calculate and measure the amount of water used when preparing the mother liquid. Do not add too much or too little, as this can significantly affect the effectiveness of the pest control.
In addition, always wear proper protective equipment when handling pesticides, and follow the manufacturer's instructions carefully. It's also a good practice to label all containers clearly and store unused pesticide in a safe, secure place away from children and pets. Always dispose of leftover pesticide according to local regulations to protect the environment and prevent contamination.
