About Fipronil 4% w/w + Thiamethoxam 4% w/w SC
Fipronil 4% + Thiamethoxam 4% SC is a powerful, broad-spectrum, dual-action insecticide (suspension concentrate) designed for immediate knockdown and long-lasting control of sucking and chewing pests like aphids, thrips, and whiteflies. Combining phenyl-pyrazole and neonicotinoid, it offers systemic and contact action, reducing pest resistance while protecting crops like rice, cotton, and vegetables for higher, healthier yields
- Dual-Action & Synergistic Effect: Fipronil (contact/ingestion) works with Thiamethoxam (systemic) to disrupt nervous systems via different sites, providing a fast knockdown and long-lasting residual effect.
- Broad-Spectrum Control: Effective against major pests including Aphids, Whiteflies, Jassids, Thrips, Brown Plant Hoppers (BPH), and White-Backed Plant Hoppers.
- Prevents Resistance: The combination of two different chemical classes reduces the likelihood of insects developing immunity compared to using a single active ingredient.
- Systemic Action: Thiamethoxam is absorbed by the plant and moves through its system, making it highly effective against sap-sucking insects.
- Crop Protection & Vigor: Protects crops from early infestation, leading to better plant health, improved vigor, and higher yield potential
- Target Crops: Primarily Rice (Paddy), but also suitable for cotton, vegetables, and fruit crops.
- Method: Foliar spray is the main application method.
- Timing: Best applied at the early stages of infestation to prevent crop damage.
- Dosage: Common recommendations include to per hectare depending on the crop and pest density (e.g., /ha in of water for rice)
