Lunox Insecticide is an advanced insect growth regulator developed to control resistant larvae and borer pests that survive conventional insecticides. Powered by Lufenuron 5.4% EC, it works at the biological level by inhibiting chitin formation, preventing insects from molting and completing their life cycle. Lunox delivers long-lasting protection, excellent rainfastness, and effective resistance management. It is ideal for farmers facing heavy pest pressure in vegetables, cotton, and pulses while supporting sustainable and IPM-based farming practices.
