General Information
Mihir is a systemic insecticide manufactured by Insecticides (India) Limited in India. It contains the active ingredient pymetrozine 50% WG, which belongs to the pyridine azomethine class of insecticides. Mihir is a selective insecticide that effectively controls sucking pests, particularly planthoppers and leafhoppers, without harming beneficial insects.
Mode of Action
Pymetrozine acts by interfering with the feeding behavior of sucking pests. It disrupts the transmission of nerve impulses in the stylets, the sucking mouthparts of these insects, preventing them from effectively piercing plant tissues and sucking sap. This disruption leads to starvation and eventually death of the insect pest.
Application
Mihir can be applied to a variety of crops, including rice, cotton, vegetables, and other field crops. It is compatible with various application methods, including foliar sprays and soil drenches. The recommended dose varies depending on the crop and pest being treated.
Precautions
Mihir is a moderately toxic product. It is important to follow all safety precautions when handling and applying this product. Wear appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE), including gloves, long sleeves, pants, and a respirator.
Disclaimer
Please always read and follow the instructions on the product label before using any insecticide.
