Zelto promotes turf health by protecting roots from the ground up. Zelto is a biological nematicide for control of plant parasitic nematodes and soil dwelling pests, such as white grubs. It has a novel bacteria based (non-living) active with true nematicidal activity against eggs, juveniles, and adult nematodes.
Zelto also has activity on labeled surface feeding insects in turf providing additional protection to maintain plant health. Zelto can also be used on ornamental plants in landscapes to control a wide-variety of piercing/sucking type insects that can cause damage.
A FIFRA 2(ee) recommendation has been issued for the use of Zelto to control Pythium blight in turfgrass.
