Sumitomo Celcron is a broad-spectrum, non-systemic insecticide that helps to protect crops from harmful insects, mites, and worms. Celcron insecticide is effective against pests such as bollworms, aphids, jassids, thrips, whiteflies, semi-loopers, and girdle beetles. Sumitomo Celcron acts directly through contact and stomach action, which disturbs insect nerve function, causing paralysis and death. Celcron insecticide targets crops such as cotton, soybean, chilli, and onion. Sumitomo Celcron mixes easily with water and contains a concentrated emulsifiable chemical that helps protect crops from pests and damage.
