Key Features & Benefits

Broad-Spectrum Control: Effectively controls major sucking pests like aphids, jassids, thrips, and whiteflies across various crops.
Systemic Action: Absorbed by the plant and circulated throughout, protecting new growth from infestation.
Long-Lasting Effect: Provides extended pest protection, reducing the need for frequent applications.
Rainfast Formulation: Remains effective even after light rainfall, ensuring consistent field performance.
Selective Toxicity: Targets pests without harming beneficial insects such as pollinators and predators.
Enhanced Crop Health: Reduces pest-related stress, helping crops achieve better yield and quality.

Mode of Action

Flonicamid acts by targeting the central nervous system of pests, specifically interrupting their feeding behavior. Once treated, pests stop feeding immediately, preventing further crop damage. The insecticide’s systemic action provides long-term protection as it translocates through plant tissues, covering new growth and hidden pests.

Spray Volume: Ensure adequate water volume for thorough wetting of crop foliage.
Timing: Apply at the early infestation stage or as soon as pest activity is observed.
