EVICENT Insecticide
EVICENT Insecticide is a next-generation insecticide formulated with Emamectin Benzoate 5% w/w + Lufenuron 40% w/w WG, designed to provide powerful control against destructive chewing and larval pests. The unique combination delivers both immediate knockdown and long-lasting growth regulation, making it highly effective against resistant pest populations in crops such as cotton, chilli, vegetables, and pulses.
Emamectin Benzoate acts as a stomach poison and nerve disruptor, rapidly paralyzing larvae and stopping feeding within hours. Lufenuron works as an Insect Growth Regulator (IGR) that prevents insects from forming a proper exoskeleton during molting, stopping the pest life cycle completely.
This dual-mode action ensures quick pest suppression and long residual protection, making EVICENT a reliable solution for farmers facing severe infestations of Helicoverpa, Spodoptera, Fruit Borers, and Leaf Eating Caterpillars.
