lufenoxuron 10% DC (Dispersible Concentrate) is a high-quality, specialized insect growth regulator (IGR) and acaricide that acts primarily as a chitin synthesis inhibitor (MOA Group 15) to control larval and nymphal stages of pests. It is used to protect various crops, including fruits, vegetables, and cotton, by preventing pests from molting and maturing.
Key Pesticide Benefits of Flufenoxuron 10% DC
Mode of Action (Chitin Synthesis Inhibitor): It disrupts the molting process in insects and mites, causing death at the immature stage. It works through both contact and stomach action.
Target Pest Spectrum: It is highly effective against:
Mites: Red mites, rust mites, two-spotted mites (e.g., Tetranychus spp.), and citrus spider mites.
Lepidopteran Larvae: Caterpillars, apple leaf rollers, loopers, and bean pod borers.
Others: Whiteflies, citrus psyllids, and leaf miners.
Ovicidal Effects: Adult mites exposed to Flufenoxuron lay fewer eggs, and those eggs often fail to hatch.
Integrated Pest Management (IPM) Compatible: Due to its selective action, it has low toxicity to beneficial insects and natural enemies of mites, making it ideal for IPM programs.
Long-Lasting Control: It offers sustained, long-lasting protection against pests.
High Efficacy Formulation: The 10% DC formulation provides rapid and thorough coverage.
