General Information

SARGENT XPRESS is a granular insecticide manufactured by Insecticides (India) Limited in India. It contains the active ingredient fipronil 0.3G, which belongs to the phenylpyrazole class of insecticides. SARGENT XPRESS is a broad-spectrum insecticide that effectively controls a wide range of insect pests, including lepidopteran larvae, coleopteran larvae, and sucking pests.

Mode of Action

Fipronil acts as a non-competitive antagonist of GABA (gamma-aminobutyric acid) receptors in insect nerve cells. This disruption of GABA receptors leads to hyperexcitation of the insect nervous system, resulting in paralysis and death of the insect pest.

Application

SARGENT XPRESS can be applied to a variety of crops, including rice, sugarcane, maize, cotton, and vegetables. It is applied as a soil application, either by broadcasting or incorporating into the soil. The recommended dose varies depending on the crop and pest being treated.

Precautions

SARGENT XPRESS 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.
