🌱 Target Pests

  • Fruit Borer

⚙️ Mode of Action

  • Novaluron is an Insect Growth Regulator (IGR) that inhibits chitin synthesis, preventing proper molting and development of immature insects.
  • Emamectin Benzoate activates chloride ion channels in insect nerve and muscle cells, causing feeding cessation, paralysis, and eventual death.

The dual mode of action provides effective control of multiple pest stages and helps delay resistance development.

Time of Application

  • Apply at the early stage of pest infestation
  • Spray when larvae are young and actively feeding
  • Best results are obtained before severe crop damage occurs
  • Apply during morning or evening hours
  • Avoid spraying during strong winds or immediately before rainfall
