Katyayani Bt Bio Larvicide Liquid | Bio Pesticide

Katyayani Bt Bio Larvicide Overview: Katyayani Bt Bio Larvicide is a liquid bio insecticide containing Bacillus thuringiensis. It effectively targets a wide range of insect larval pests through ingestion, disrupting their gut and halting their feeding, ultimately eliminating the pests. Target Pests: Effective against various larval pests, including: Tobacco borer Corn borer Stem borer Fruit borer Pod borer Leaf-eating pests Other lepidopteran, hymenopteran, dipteran, and coleopteran larvae Target Crops: Suitable for crops like: Cotton Paddy Cabbage Chickpea Okra Tomato Cauliflower Chilli Gram Pigeon pea Soybean Many others Mode of Action: Spore Ingestion: Insect larvae consume plant material containing Bt spores. Spore Activation: High pH in the midgut dissolves spores, releasing protein crystals. Protoxin Activation: Gut enzymes convert crystals into active Bt toxins. Binding to Midgut Cells: Toxins bind to receptors on gut cells. Pore Formation: Toxins insert into cell membranes, forming pores. Cell Lysis: Pores disrupt membranes, causing cell rupture. Impact on Insect: Disruption of the digestive system leads to starvation. Application and Dosage: Gardening Use: 510 ml per litre of water Agricultural Use: 12 litres per acre Application Method: Spray in the crop field Precautions: Apply 23 days before using chemical pesticides for better efficacy against young pests. Use when temperatures exceed 18C, preferably in the evening. Best results are achieved above 30C. Reapply every 1015 days for ongoing control.
