Advantages
Crops & Usage

Insect growth regulator IGR

It is non-systemic, its effect is limited to harmful pests, so it does not harm bees or beneficial insects
Controls pests belonging to the order Lepidoptera (worms)
It can be included in the integrated pest control program IPM.

Mode of Action:
Demerol 48% SC works as a moulting inhibitor during the growth stages of pests, which leads to them stopping feeding and then death, as it affects the eggs by preventing hatching or increasing the incubation of the eggs, and thus larvae are hatched, accelerating death from the first instar. It also works as a moulting inhibitor in the larvae, where It affects worms as an infectious poison through the digestive system or through contact, as it interferes with the processes of chitin formation (component of the body wall), which hinders the process of transition from the larval stage to the adult nymph, which leads to its death.
