Ematrol
Ematrol having Emamectin Benzoate 5% SG is a water-soluble granular insecticide known for its strong action against a wide range of lepidopteran pests. It is specially designed for effective pest control with minimal environmental impact.
This insecticide works by interfering with the pest's nervous system, causing paralysis and death shortly after ingestion. It provides rapid control and long-lasting protection by penetrating leaf tissues and reaching pests on both sides of the leaf.
Being compatible with Integrated Pest Management (IPM), it is safe for beneficial insects when used as directed. Its high efficacy and low dosage requirement make it a preferred choice for farmers targeting caterpillar and borer infestations.
Technical Name:
Emamectin Benzoate 5% SG
Mode of Action:
Emamectin Benzoate disrupts the nerve signal transmission in target insects by activating chloride channels, increasing the release of gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA). This results in paralysis and death. It exhibits strong stomach and contact action and translaminar activity for deep tissue penetration.
