Cruzep-50 is a broad-spectrum systemic insecticide containing Cartap Hydrochloride 50% SP, derived from a natural toxin found in marine worms. Once ingested or contacted by insects, it blocks nerve signal transmission at the synaptic junction, causing immediate paralysis and death. Cartap Hydrochloride 50% SP insecticide works through contact, systemic, and stomach action — controlling pests that touch treated surfaces, those that feed on treated plant parts, and those hidden deep inside stems and leaf rolls. Cruzep-50 is especially trusted for Stem Borer and Leaf Folder control in Paddy and is also effective across Tomato, Brinjal, Sugarcane, and Tea. Available in multiple pack sizes, it is a reliable and affordable pest management solution for farmers across India.
