Delta 2.5 EC
Non systemic insecticide contains 2.5% (w/v) Deltamethrin in the form of emulsifiable concentrate
Non systemic insecticide with contact and stomach action. Fast-acting. Like all pyrethroides, prevents the sodium channels from functioning, so that no transmission of nerve impulses can take place.
- Highly capable of killing insects especially those resistant to organochlorine, organo-phosphorus and carbamate insecticides , and other pyrethroides
- Non systemic having a contact and stomach action, therefore the plants should be thoroughly covered during application
- Absorbed by the insects cuticle; hence rapid action
- Stable and not affected by the different environmental conditions, nevertheless, it is rapidly degraded in soil therefore it does not contaminate the soil
- Has a short pre-harvest period due to its low percentage of use . Also studies have proved that the level of Deltamethrin residue is low
- Toxic to bees, but exhibits a repellent effect .
