Lufenuron’s main market is in the field of animal health, used to control fleas on cats and dogs, and is mainly used in citrus, vegetables, cotton, corn, fruit trees and other crops in China. It can control a variety of pests and is highly effective against a variety of lepidopteran pests. It can also be used to control piercing and sucking mouthparts pests, especially for beet armyworm, Spodoptera litura, corn borer, armyworm, armyworm, cotton bollworm And other resistant pests have excellent efficacy. Its insecticidal mechanism works by inhibiting the formation of chitin synthase in larvae, interfering with the deposition of chitin on the epidermis, causing insects to fail to molting and metamorphose and die.
Main compound
Lufenuron·Temfenpyril (mainly to control beet armyworm);
Lufenuron·Chlorpyrifos (mainly to control cotton bollworm);
Emamectin·Lufenuron (mainly to control Spodoptera exigua);
Abamectin·Lufenuron (mainly to control rust ticks), etc.
Lasting period (Lufenuron>chlorfenapyr)
Lufenuron has a strong egg-killing effect, and the insect control time is relatively long, up to 25 days; Chlorfenapyr does not kill eggs, and only has an outstanding control effect on advanced instar insects. The insect control time is about 7-10 days.
Leaf retention rate (Lufenuron>Chlorfenapyr)
Compared with the control effect of rice leaf roller, the leaf retention rate of lufenuron can reach more than 90%, and the leaf retention rate of Chlorfenapyr reaches about 65%.
Safety (Lufenuron>Chlorfenapyr)
Lufenuron has no response to the phytotoxicity so far. At the same time, the agent will not cause piercing-sucking pests to become rampant. It has a mild effect on beneficial insects and predatory spiders.Chlorfenapyr is sensitive to cruciferous vegetables and melon crops. Or high-dose use is prone to phytotoxicity.
Insecticidal spectrum (Chlorfenapyr> lufenuron)
Lufenuron is mainly used to control leaf rollers, Plutella xylostella, Plutella xylostella, Spodoptera exigua, Spodoptera litura, and whitefly, thrips, rust ticks and other pests. It is particularly prominent in the control of rice leaf rollers. Chlorfenapyr has excellent control effects on drilling, sucking and chewing sucking mites, especially the diamondback moth, beet armyworm, Spodoptera litura, leaf roller, Liriomyza sativa, and thistle among the radiation-resistant pests. Horses, spider mites, etc. have significant effect.
Precautions
1. It has cross-resistance with hexaflumuron, chlorfluazuron, diflubenzuron, etc.; it should not be mixed with carbamates such as methomyl and thiodicarb;
2. Lufenuron generally takes 3-5 days to reach the peak insecticidal period, so it is necessary to compound some highly active agents. Such as emamectin benzoate and so on.
3. Can not be mixed with alkaline agents;
4. It is highly toxic to crustaceans, and it is strictly forbidden to pollute rivers, lakes, ponds and other waters with the remaining liquid medicine and the waste liquid of washing medicine equipment.
