- Overview
- Recommended Products
This product is a 25 g/L deltamethrin emulsifiable concentrate (EC) formulation, belonging to the pyrethroid class of broad-spectrum contact and stomach-action insecticides. Deltamethrin is a Type II pyrethroid that acts primarily by modulating voltage-gated sodium channels in the insect nervous system, prolonging channel opening and disrupting normal nerve impulse transmission, leading to rapid paralysis and death. It exhibits strong lipophilicity, facilitating rapid penetration through the insect cuticle, with rapid knockdown and long-lasting residual control.
Suitable for various crops such as rice, cotton, vegetables (cabbage, tomato, okra, eggplant, chilli, etc.), fruit trees (mango, citrus, apple), maize, soybeans, beans, tobacco, tea, and ornamental plants. It is used to control a wide range of insect pests including aphids, thrips, leafhoppers, bollworms, fruit borers, diamondback moth, cutworms, armyworms, stem borers, and leaf folders. Please use according to the recommended dosage within the registered and approved areas.

Key Functions
Deltamethrin is a synthetic Type II pyrethroid insecticide developed by Roussel Uclaf (later acquired by Bayer) and first registered for agricultural use in 1978. It is one of the most potent pyrethroid insecticides, characterized by high insecticidal activity at very low dose rates. Deltamethrin acts primarily on the insect nervous system by modulating voltage-gated sodium channels (Nav). As a Type II pyrethroid, deltamethrin prolongs the opening of sodium channels by slowing down fast inactivation and deactivation, causing continuous nerve stimulation, excessive neurotransmitter release, and eventual paralysis and death of the insect. This mechanism of action is classified as IRAC Group 3A (Sodium channel modulators — Pyrethroids, Pyrethrins). The compound exhibits strong lipophilicity (log Kow approximately 4.6–6.1), which facilitates rapid adsorption onto the insect cuticle and efficient penetration into the insect body, resulting in a rapid knockdown effect. Deltamethrin is a non-systemic insecticide with predominantly contact and stomach action. It has very low water solubility and low vapor pressure, providing good rainfastness and residual activity on treated surfaces. Deltamethrin exhibits an anti-feeding effect, causing insects to stop feeding soon after exposure. It is highly effective against a broad spectrum of chewing and sucking insect pests. Deltamethrin is highly toxic to aquatic organisms (fish and aquatic invertebrates) and honeybees, and appropriate precautions must be taken during application to minimize non-target exposure.
Key Benefits
1. Broad-spectrum insecticidal activity effectively controlling a wide range of agricultural and horticultural insect pests, including aphids, thrips, leafhoppers, bollworms, fruit borers, diamondback moth, cutworms, armyworms, stem borers, flea beetles, and many others.
2. Wide range of application, suitable for rice, cotton, vegetables (cabbage, tomato, okra, eggplant, chilli, cucumber, etc.), fruit trees (mango, citrus, apple, peach), maize, soybeans, beans, tobacco, tea, and ornamental plants.
3. Rapid knockdown effect — strong lipophilicity facilitates rapid penetration through the insect cuticle, causing insects to stop feeding and moving soon after contact.
4. Unique mode of action — Type II pyrethroid, IRAC Group 3A (sodium channel modulator), with no cross-resistance to organophosphates and carbamates; suitable for Insect Resistance Management (IRM) and rotation programs.
5. Long-lasting residual activity — very low water solubility and low vapor pressure provide good rainfastness and extended protection on treated crops.
6. Anti-feeding effect — exposed insects cease feeding soon after treatment, reducing direct crop damage even before mortality occurs.
7. High insecticidal potency — effective at very low dose rates, reducing the amount of active ingredient required per hectare.
8. Emulsifiable concentrate (EC) formulation — good stability, easy to measure and mix, suitable for foliar spray application with conventional equipment.
9. Compatible with Integrated Pest Management (IPM) programs when used as directed, with appropriate measures to protect pollinators and aquatic organisms.
