Lambda Cyhalothrin 4.9% CS

Lambda Cyhalothrin 4.9% CS is a broad-spectrum, synthetic pyrethroid insecticide known for its quick knockdown effect and long-lasting residual control. The "CS" stands for Capsule Suspension, a modern technology where the active ingredient is sealed in microcapsules that release slowly once the spray dries, offering better crop safety and extended protection compared to traditional oil-based formulations.

Key Features and Usage

• Mode of Action: It acts as a contact and stomach poison, disrupting the insect's nervous system leading to rapid paralysis and death.

• Broad Spectrum: Highly effective against a wide range of chewing and sucking pests including Bollworms, Stem Borers, Thrips, and Fruit Borers.

• Rainfastness: Once dry, the microencapsulated formula adheres well to leaves, making it more resistant to being washed away by rain.

Crop-wise Recommendations

Application and Safety Tips

• Foliar Spray: Typically applied at a rate of 0.5 1 ml per liter of water for general use, or as specified in the table above for large-scale farming.

• Timing: For best results, apply during the early morning or evening to minimize impact on beneficial insects like bees.

• Protection: Always wear PPE (gloves, mask, and goggles). This chemical is toxic to fish and honey bees, so avoid spraying near water bodies or during active foraging periods.
