Cartap Hydrochloride 50% SP
Cartap Hydrochloride 50% SP is a trusted insecticide widely used by paddy and vegetable farmers across India. It is well known for controlling stem borer and leaf folder in paddy, two of the most damaging pests in rice farming. With its triple-action working style, this insecticide gives complete protection from pest eggs, larvae, and adult insects.
How Cartap Hydrochloride 50% SP Works
Once sprayed, Cartap Hydrochloride moves inside the plant and also acts on contact with the pest. It stops the pest’s nerve signals, causing the insect to stop feeding almost immediately and eventually die. Because it controls pests at all life stages — eggs, larvae, and adults — one application can give protection for 10 to 15 days, reducing the need for frequent spraying.
