Decis Insecticide
Decis Insecticide is a highly effective broad-spectrum insecticide containing Deltamethrin 2.8% EC, a powerful synthetic pyrethroid known for its quick knockdown action against a wide range of insect pests. It works primarily through contact and stomach action, rapidly paralyzing insects by disrupting their nervous system.
Decis is widely used by farmers for controlling thrips, aphids, jassids, caterpillars, bollworms, and other damaging pests in crops like cotton, vegetables, pulses, and fruits. Its fast action, low dose requirement, and strong residual effect make it a trusted choice for integrated pest management (IPM) programs.
