About Pyriproxyfen 0.5% Gr / 10% EC

Pyriproxyfen is a highly effective, synthetic Insect Growth Regulator (IGR) that acts as a juvenile hormone analog. It disrupts the normal growth, metamorphosis, and reproduction of pests rather than causing immediate death (knockdown).

It is primarily used in two formulations for agricultural and public health applications:

10% EC (Emulsifiable Concentrate): Foliar spray for crop protection.
0.5% GR (Granules): Soil/water application for larval control.

Key Benefits of Pyriproxyfen 10% EC (Agricultural Use)

Comprehensive Pest Life-Cycle Control: It acts on eggs, nymphs, and pupae, preventing immature pests from maturing into adults and making existing adults sterile.
Broad-Spectrum Sucking Pest Management: Highly effective against whiteflies, aphids, jassids, leaf miners, and scale insects.
Long-Lasting Residual Protection: It offers extended control, reducing the need for repeated applications and lowering overall chemical costs.
Translaminar Activity: When sprayed on the top surface of leaves, it moves to the lower surface, killing hidden pests.
Phytotonic Effects: It has been known to induce a greening effect on plants, enhancing plant health and increasing yield.
IPM Compatible & Safe for Beneficals: It has low toxicity to mammals and minimal impact on beneficial insects like bees and pollinators.

Key Benefits of Pyriproxyfen 0.5% Gr (Larvicide Use)

Mosquito Larvae Management: Specifically used as an advanced larval control agent in standing water, preventing larvae from maturing into adult mosquitoes.
Controlled Release Technology: The granular formulation allows for a gradual, sustained release of the active ingredient, ensuring continuous control in breeding sites like stagnant drains, wells, and cesspits.
Effective at Low Dosages: High activity at very low concentrations makes it an economical choice for vector control programs.

Crop Suitability

Pyriproxyfen 10% EC is suitable for a wide range of crops including cotton, vegetables (okra, brinjal, chilli), fruits (citrus, grape-wine, mango, papaya), and tea.

Safety and Environmental Considerations

Low Toxicity: It is generally safe for humans and non-target organisms.
Toxic to Aquatic Life: While eco-friendly on land, it is hazardous to aquatic organisms and should not be released into water bodies.
Application Precautions: Always use protective gear (masks, gloves) during application and avoid spraying during high wind.
