Hover insecticide controls Aphids, Jassids, Thrips, Whiteflies, Bollworms, Shoot Fly, Stem Borers, Semilooper, Girdle Beetle, Fruit Borer, and Tea Mosquito Bug across Cotton, Maize, Groundnut, Soybean, Chilli, Tea, and Tomato.
Hover insecticide contains two active ingredients from different chemical groups —BACF Hover controls hidden pests systemically from inside the plant, while Lambda Cyhalothrin kills surface pests on contact. This combination gives more complete pest control than any single-active insecticide can achieve alone.
It has low to moderate toxicity to humans when used correctly with proper protective gear. Always wear gloves, goggles, and a mask during application, and wash all exposed skin thoroughly after use.
Hover insecticide provides prolonged residual pest control due to the ZC formulation's strong adhesion to leaf surfaces and the systemic movement of Thiamethoxam inside the plant, reducing the number of spray applications needed per season.
Early morning or late evening when temperatures are cool, and bees are not actively foraging — avoid spraying during the flowering stage to protect pollinators and ensure maximum spray coverage on leaf surfaces.
