Product Name: DEFENDER – Herbal Insecticide

Type: Botanical Insecticide & Fumigant

Composition: Formulated using long-chain fatty acids and plant-derived fumigants

Product Description:

DEFENDER is a powerful, broad-spectrum herbal insecticide specially developed for the effective control of mealybugs and other soft-bodied insect pests. Its unique formulation combines the efficacy of long-chain fatty acids with natural fumigant agents, providing both contact and vapor-phase action for maximum pest knockdown and non residual control. Herbal-Based Formula: Made from plant-derived fatty acids and natural fumigants, making it eco-friendly and safe for beneficial insects when used as directed. Works through both contact toxicity and fumigation. The fatty acids penetrate the waxy coating of mealybugs, disrupting their cell membranes, while the volatile components suffocate hidden or hard-to-reach pests.Systemic & Surface Action: Effective on both visible pests and those residing in plant crevices or under foliage.

  • Residue-Free: Leaves no harmful chemical residues, suitable for use in organic and sustainable farming systems.
  • Non-Phytotoxic: Safe for most crop types when used at recommended dosages.
