§ Decis Insecticide is the world's most effective synthetic pyrethroid photo
stable insecticide for use in agriculture.
§ It is a non systemic insecticide which acts by contact and
ingestion with broad spectrum control of chewing and sucking insects.
§ Exhibits remarkable knock down effect.
§ Technical Content: Deltamethrin 2.8 EC (2.8% w/w)
§ Mode of Entry: Non-systemic, contact and ingestion
§ Mode of Action: Bayer’s Decis 2.8 insecticide acts by contact and ingestion.
Its high lipophilicity provides a high affinity with the insect cuticle. In the
insect body it affects the nerve transmission by acting on the axon. It
disrupts the conduction of the nervous influx by modifying the kinetics of the
function of the sodium canal.
§ Decis 2.8 EC Insecticide exhibits a good residual activity due to a range of specific
physico-chemical properties:
§ Solubility in fatty tissues allowing a good penetration into cuticles
of leaves.
§ Very low solubility in water gives good rain fastness.
§ Very low vapor pressure and therefore a good resistance to
evaporation.
§ Most effective synthetic pyrethroid because of a single pure
isomer.
§ Demonstrates repellent action and anti-feeding properties.
§ Excellent rain-fastness.
