| Product description | A benzoylurea insecticide classified as an Insect Growth Regulator (IGR). It acts as a chitin synthesis inhibitor, disrupting the molting process of insect larvae and the development of eggs. It has primarily stomach poison action (must be ingested) and transovarial activity (affects eggs), but no systemic activity in plants. It is highly effective against Lepidopteran pests and flea larvae, with slow action but long residual activity. It is known for its low toxicity to mammals and its selectivity. |
| Packing | TC: 25 kg/drum, or according to customer requirements. |
