Exylon Luxor is a broad-spectrum insecticide that controls sucking and chewing pests such as bollworms, stem borer, leaf borer, thrips, stem fly, and others. Lambda Cyhalothrin 4.9% CS insecticide disrupts the nervous system of the insects through contact and stomach action, leading to paralysis and death.
Lambda Cyhalothrin 4.9% CS insecticide has residual activity, allowing the insecticide to last for a longer period on crops like cotton, paddy, brinjal, okra, chilli, soybean, pomegranate, and other vegetables.
Lambda Cyhalothrin 4.9% CS works effectively on pests that have developed resistance to other insecticides. It stops feeding on the crops and ensures minimal damage to stems, leaves, and roots.
