ALOFT® provides total insect control of white grubs, early-season adults and surface-feeders on golf courses and lawns.

ALOFT offers you maximum application flexibility to suit your treatment schedules, anytime from April to September.

  • Early-season adults, surface-feeders and early preventive grub applications: (April – June)
    Applied preventively as early as April to June on all major early-season adults and surface-feeders, ALOFT provides quick knockdown on contact, as well as preventive, season-long control of all white grubs. Plus, ALOFT controls any escaped larvae from early-season adults and surface-feeder eggs laid on turfgrass prior to application.
  • Standard preventive applications: (June – July)
    If treating for grubs during the typical preventive timing from June to July, ALOFT can be applied at the lowest label rate to lower your chemical cost. ALOFT provides season-long, preventive white grub control, while knocking down and preventing other nuisance pests, like ants, chinch bugs, sod webworms and cutworms with the same application.
  • Curative grub applications: (August – September)
    The immediate knockdown activity plus the increased acute systemic activity of clothianidin in ALOFT enables it to be applied as an ideal curative or “rescue” grub control treatment from mid-August to mid-September, also providing knockdown of adult and surface-feeding insects.

Any time you choose to apply it, ALOFT gives you the flexibility to treat more acres, spread out your crew schedules and workloads and deliver high-quality turf.
