Any gardener or gardener is faced with pests that threaten the harvest or appearance of plants. There are a huge number of products available to control insects and other pests. Some of them were invented a long time ago and have become classics, others can be considered new. One of the universal ones produced by industry is the “Brunka” tree treatment product.
Tasting characteristics
Vodka made with birch buds or tincture made with birch buds and alcohol is one of the oldest and most popular alcoholic drinks in the CIS countries. The reason for this popularity lies in the ease of preparation.
To create a drink, you just need to choose any alcohol and add freshly picked birch buds to it. Time does the rest. After letting the drink brew for at least a few weeks, you can pour it into a convenient container and experience a more than non-trivial taste.
Birch brunki: what is it?
“Brunks” are popularly called kidneys. In this case, we are talking about young birch shoots that are collected in early spring. They give the drink an extraordinary delicate aroma and softness, not to mention a delicate and recognizable taste.
Color
The basis of any strong alcoholic product made from birch brooms is a stylish dark straw color. Some manufacturers, by adding various ingredients and food coloring, achieve more golden or even copper reflections.
Aroma
In terms of aromatic characteristics, the original strong product pleases with truly spring freshness. The aromatic bouquet can also vary depending on the recipe chosen by the manufacturer.
Taste
In gastronomic indicators, an unobtrusive character prevails. Drinks of this class do not have a particularly expressive alcohol base, but this, of course, does not mean that they do not have their own style.
Action Characteristics
Fungicide Brunka, thanks to the combined action of three components, has the qualities of an insectoacaricide with a high ability to penetrate the body of insects. And the contact action of lambda-cyhalothrin guarantees the protection of leaves from caterpillars and larvae.
During the breakdown of the active compounds of the drug Brunka, microelements such as phosphorus, aluminum and copper are released, which serve to stimulate plant development.
The components of Brunka fungicide are activated at a wide variety of ambient temperatures:
- for lambda-cygalotropin, 2 degrees Celsius is enough;
- The decomposition of aluminum phosphide begins upon contact with moisture and accelerates with increasing temperature.
imidacloprid takes effect at 6 degrees Celsius;
Taking into account these characteristics of the fungicide, the optimal temperature range for spraying will be 12-20 degrees.
How to choose the right drink and distinguish it from a fake
In an effort to purchase a strong alcoholic drink, modern consumers immediately begin to think about what to eat with vodka, but initially they need to pay attention to the acquisition process itself, because the modern alcohol market is increasingly being taken over by counterfeit products every year.
That is, today, if you go to a specialized alcohol boutique, you can easily find several products that can easily be classified as counterfeit.
If you want to protect your choice of strong alcohol, be sure to pay attention to:
- Viscosity. Vodka made with birch brunkas has a slightly unobtrusive thick consistency. If you shake the drink in the bottle, you should notice how a small oily layer of the product forms on the walls of the container for a few seconds.
- Cleanliness. The structure of the drink should be free of any new formations. If you notice sediment or cloudiness, return the bottle to the shelf, as its authenticity is in doubt.
- Design of containers. Modern manufacturers take a responsible approach to the preparation and bottling of their products, which is why you will never encounter glue drips, glass chips, uneven seams and other unpleasant moments on branded bottles. Also, before purchasing, be sure to visit a specialized website representing the interests of a particular manufacturer. This way you can get acquainted with the characteristics of the branded bottle of the product you liked in the store.

Reviews
Arkady, 32 years old, Pokrov
There are a lot of abandoned plots around my dacha. I treated old apple and pear trees with Brunka, the result was zero. The codling moth still eats apples, and there are no fewer other pests.
Vladimir, 54 years old, Krasnodar region
I tried Brunka against grape itching. Sprayed the bushes until the buds bloomed. The promised effect did not occur. Perhaps I was wrong with the air temperature. Brunka was not available for leaf processing, so I sprayed it with Karate. This treatment turned out to be effective.
