Pyriproxyfen 10% + Bifenthrin 10% EC

Pyriproxyfen Bifenthrin EC

Pyriproxyfen Bifenthrin EC is a powerful combination insecticide that brings together a fast-acting pyrethroid with a long-lasting insect growth regulator. This dual approach gives farmers both immediate relief from active pest attacks and extended protection against future generations of pests, making it especially effective for whitefly management in cotton and vegetable crops.

How Pyriproxyfen Bifenthrin EC Works

Bifenthrin acts quickly on contact, killing active pests almost immediately and providing fast knockdown when infestation levels are high. Pyriproxyfen works differently — it acts as a juvenile hormone analog that disrupts the pest’s growth and reproduction. Even if some adult insects are seen after spraying, Pyriproxyfen causes sterility, meaning their eggs will not hatch, breaking the pest’s life cycle before it can multiply further.

Why Farmers Choose This Insecticide

One of the standout features of this product is its translaminar activity, which allows it to move through the leaf and reach pests hiding on the underside, an area many insecticides struggle to cover effectively. This is particularly useful for controlling whitefly, which often lays eggs and feeds on the lower leaf surface, away from direct spray contact.

Farmers dealing with leaf curling, yellowing, or honeydew deposits caused by sucking pests often see significant improvement after using this combination. Because Pyriproxyfen also has a phytotonic effect, many users notice a visible greening of the crop alongside pest control, contributing to better overall plant health and improved yield potential.

Key Benefits

• Controls whiteflies, aphids, jassids, and thrips effectively
• Dual action — fast knockdown plus long-term reproduction control
• Translaminar activity reaches pests on the underside of leaves
• Controls all stages of whitefly — eggs, nymphs, and adults
• Phytotonic effect — supports greener, healthier crop growth
• Effective across a wide range of climatic conditions

Dose Chart – How Much to Use

When to Apply

• Early Pest Infestation — spray as soon as whitefly or sucking pests are first noticed
• High Infestation Periods — repeat every 10 to 15 days as needed
• Vegetative to Flowering Stage — protects crop growth and yield potential

Suitable Crops

Best for cotton, chilli, tomato, brinjal, okra, and other vegetables. For complete crop health, many farmers also use it along with Humic Acid 98% Flakes for stronger roots, and Organic Carbon Liquid to maintain healthy soil through the season.
