How to Use Coromandel Diamond Insecticide:
Open the container carefully and measure the required quantity of Diamond Insecticide as per the crop-wise dosage table.
Fill the spray tank with about 70% of the required clean water.
Slowly add the measured product into the tank while stirring continuously until fully dissolved.
Top up with the remaining water and mix thoroughly to form a uniform spray solution.
Spray evenly on both upper and lower leaf surfaces, covering shoot tips, fruits, and pods.
Pay special attention to hidden areas — leaf curls, fruit calyx, and inside flower buds where caterpillars usually shelter.
Reapply at 10 to 14-day intervals if pest pressure continues or a fresh infestation appears.
Best Time to Apply:
Spray Coromandel Diamond Insecticide at the early larval stage, when small worms are first noticed on fresh growth, flowers, or developing fruits — younger larvae are far easier to control than mature ones. For bollworms and pod borers, time the spray during peak egg-laying and just after egg hatch. Pick a calm window with no rain expected for the next 4 to 6 hours.
Frequency of Application and Re-entry Period:
Frequency of Application: Apply Coromandel Diamond Insecticide 2 to 3 times per crop cycle at 10 to 14-day intervals, depending on pest pressure and crop growth stage.
Re-Entry Period: Do not enter treated fields for at least 12 to 24 hours after application without proper protective clothing.
Compatibility: The Diamond Insecticide formulation is compatible with most commonly used fungicides, insecticides, and water-soluble fertilizers. Avoid mixing with strongly alkaline products like Bordeaux mixture, and always perform a small jar test before any tank-mix.
Safety, Precautions, and Handling:
Wear hand gloves, a face mask, full-sleeve clothing, and protective eyewear while handling Coromandel Diamond Insecticide.

Avoid direct skin, eye, or mouth contact with the product or its spray solution.
After completing the spray, wash your hands, face, and exposed body parts thoroughly with soap and clean water.

In case of accidental ingestion or contact, rinse with plenty of water and consult a doctor with the product label.
