Fipro 80 – Fipronil 80% WG Insecticide

Fipro 80 – Fipronil 80% WG Insecticide Broad-Spectrum Insecticide for Effective Pest Control Fipro 80 (Fipronil 80% WG) is a broad-spectrum insecticide belonging to the phenyl pyrazole group. It provides effective contact and systemic action against important insect pests in recommended crops. Fipro 80 works on the insect nervous system and helps provide reliable and longer-lasting pest protection. It is recommended for the management of pests such as stem borer, leaf folder, thrips, and diamondback moth in crops including rice, grapes, onion, cabbage, chilli, and cotton. Technical Name Fipronil 80% WG Mode of Action Fipronil interferes with nerve impulse transmission in insects by acting on GABA-gated and glutamate-gated chloride channels. This disrupts normal nerve signal movement, resulting in hyperexcitation of the insect nervous system and muscles, ultimately leading to effective pest control. Mode of Entry: Contact and Systemic Chemical Group: Phenyl Pyrazole Time of Application: At the appearance of target pests Key Features & Benefits Broad-spectrum insect control: Effective against several important chewing and sucking insect pests. Contact and systemic action: Helps provide effective control through multiple modes of exposure. Effective at low application rates: Provides reliable pest management with a relatively low dose. Longer-lasting protection: Helps protect crops from pest infestation for an extended period. IPM suitability: Can be incorporated into integrated pest management programs when used according to recommendations. Reliable pest suppression: Helps reduce pest damage and supports healthier crop growth.
