Pyriproxyfen 10.8% EC 10% EW 95% TC

Pyrproxyfen is a synthetic insect growth regulator. It belongs to the juvenile hormone class. Its chemical structure is stable and resistant to decomposition. It persists in the environment. Pyrproxyfen has low toxicity to humans and mammals. It selectively targets non-beneficial insects. It regulates the endocrine system of insects. It disrupts their development and reproduction. Pyrproxyfen inhibits molting, reproduction, and nurturing processes. This prevents normal insect development. It controls pest populations effectively. Specifically, it inhibits acetylcholinesterase activity in pests. This leads to the accumulation of acetylcholine. Consequently, nerve transmission is disrupted. Insects experience paralysis and eventually die.

Application

Main Pest Types Controlled by Pyrproxyfen

1. Aphids: Aphids are common agricultural pests. They suck plant sap, hindering plant growth. Pyrproxyfen effectively controls aphids by preventing normal molting, reducing their population.

2. Whiteflies: Whiteflies are another common agricultural pest. They extract plant sap and spread viral diseases, causing serious harm to crops. Pyrproxyfen effectively reduces whitefly populations.

3. Scale Insects: Scale insects primarily infest plant leaves, causing yellowing and leaf drop. Pyrproxyfen disrupts their molting process, lessening their damage.

4. Flies: Fly pests harm crops directly and spread diseases. Pyrproxyfen significantly controls fly populations, effectively reducing their numbers.

Methods of Using Pyrproxyfen

1. Spraying Method: Prepare a spray solution of Pyrproxyfen according to recommended doses. Spray directly on affected crops, ensuring even coverage on both sides of the leaves and surrounding plants for better control.

2. Seed Treatment: For pests that spread through seeds, mix Pyrproxyfen with seeds before planting. This effectively prevents pests during the seedling stage.

3. Soil Treatment: For underground pests, prepare a concentrated Pyrproxyfen solution for soil treatment. This efficiently controls pests such as root maggots and soil-dwelling caterpillars.

4. Fumigation Method: In well-sealed agricultural environments, use the fumigating properties of Pyrproxyfen to treat greenhouses or tunnels, killing pests hidden in the soil or substrate.

5. Greenhouse Gas Release Method: Release Pyrproxyfen in gaseous form into greenhouses using specific equipment. Its gas stability allows it to remain in the greenhouse for an extended period, achieving continuous pest control.
