FANTASY PLUS: A Powerful Combination of Fipronil 4% + Acetamiprid 4% SC
FANTASY PLUS is a dual-action insecticide belonging to the phenylpyrazole and neonicotinoid groups. With both contact, ingestion, and systemic modes of action, it ensures immediate death of target pests. Its translaminar action controls pests on both the upper and lower surfaces of leaves, providing rapid knockdown and long-lasting protection. FANTASY PLUS affects both the central and peripheral nervous systems of pests, making it an ideal solution for controlling sucking pests like aphids, jassids, and little leaf disease in brinjal crops.
Key Features:
- Dual Mode of Action: Provides both contact and systemic protection by ingestion.
- Quick Knockdown Effect: Acts fast with long-term control.
- Translaminar Action: Penetrates leaves to control pests on both surfaces.
- Targeted Pest Control: Effectively manages all life stages—eggs, nymphs, and adults—of sucking pests.
- Ovicidal Action: Kills pest eggs, preventing further infestations.
- Synergistic Effect: Combines two active ingredients to delay the development of resistance.
- Non-Phytotoxic: Safe for plants when used as recommended and compatible with most insecticides.
- Suitable for Integrated Pest Management (IPM).
Crops and Pests:
- Cotton: Controls aphids, jassids, and whiteflies.
- Vegetables: Manages aphids, thrips, whiteflies, leafminers, and other sucking pests.
- Fruits: Controls aphids, mealybugs, scale insects, and sucking pests.
- Ornamentals: Effective against aphids, thrips, whiteflies, and other sucking pests.
Mode of Action:
- Fipronil: Disrupts nerve transmission by blocking GABA-gated chloride channels, resulting in excess neuronal stimulation, severe paralysis, and death.
- Acetamiprid: Acts as a nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (nAChR) antagonist, disturbing signal transmission in the central nervous system, leading to nerve excitation, paralysis, and death.
Application Method:
- Dosage: 2 ml per liter of water for foliar spray.
- Application Timing: Apply at the onset of insect infestation, before it reaches the Economic Threshold Level (ETL).
- Mixing Instructions: Dilute the recommended dose in ¼ of the required water, then add the remaining water with continuous agitation to ensure uniform coverage.

- Wear protective gear (gloves, masks, aprons) while handling and applying the product.
- Avoid contact with skin, eyes, and mouth, and do not inhale the spray mist.
- Do not smoke, drink, or eat during application.
- Wash thoroughly after use.
