UPL UNIRON is a modern insect growth regulator formulated with Novaluron 10% EC for effective control of mosquito larvae and major crop pests. It works by inhibiting chitin synthesis, causing abnormal molting and preventing larvae from developing into adults. UNIRON is effective against resistant pest populations and offers long-lasting control with low mammalian toxicity. Its targeted action makes it suitable for vector control programs as well as crop protection in pulses, vegetables, and field crops.
Technical Name:
Mode of Action:
- UNIRON interferes with chitin synthesis in larval stages. It acts through ingestion and contact, leading to abnormal endocuticular deposition, abortive molting, and death of the larvae.
Features & Benefits:
- Effective against mosquito larvae and crop pests
- Breaks resistance developed against older chemistries
- Low mammalian toxicity and eco-friendly profile
- Target-specific and safer to non-target organisms
- Suitable for vector control and agricultural use
Target Pest:
- Mosquito larvae, pod borer, diamondback moth (DBM), American bollworm, fruit borer, tobacco caterpillar
Suitable Crops:
- Bengal gram, cabbage, cotton, chilli, tomato, and other recommended crops
