Emoctan is a strong insecticide made with Emamectin Benzoate 5% SG. It kills many types of harmful caterpillars and worms that damage crops. The pest dies when it touches the spray or eats a treated leaf. Feeding stops within a few hours, and the pest dies in 2 to 4 days. The granules dissolve fully in water and spray smoothly. This insecticide also moves inside the leaf, so it reaches pests hiding on the underside. Emoctan is safe for use on cotton, chilli, brinjal, okra, cabbage, red gram, grapes, and tea.
