'''Confidor''' is a systemic insectside available from [[http://www.yates.co.nz/|Yates]] that is used to kill sucking insects such as [[aphid|aphids]], [[mealy bug|mealy bugs]], [[scale]], [[whitefly]] and [[thrips]].
It is claimed to be soft on predatory animals such as [[ladybird|ladybirds]] and [[hover fly|hover flies]].
==Directions==
Spray onto infected plants, ensuring a good coverage of both tops and undersides of leaves.
==Precautions==
There is a [[withholding period]] of three days for all fruit and vegetable crops.
It is recommended that you spray after sunset, to ensure that [[bee|bees]] are not harmed while spraying, as they will not be active during hours of darkness.
Avoid spraying onto blooms or flowers in direct sunlight, as this can cause them to burn.
