Dow Adds Curfew Agents, Applicator

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind. — To meet increased demand for Curfew soil fumigant in Florida, Dow AgroSciences has added LESCO and Harrell’s as agents.

The company has also named Hendrix and Dail Inc., a Florida turf management company specializing in nematode control, as a new certified, authorized applicator.

Only certified applicators, trained and authorized by Dow AgroSciences, can apply Curfew. The liquid soil fumigant, which received a 24(c) registration from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency for the state of Florida this year, offers improved rooting and provides effective control of parasitic plant nematodes – microscopic organisms that feed on and damage turfgrass roots.
