BUPROFEZIN is a thiadiazine insect growth regulator acting as moulting inhibitor for the persistent larvicidal action against some Coleoptera, Hemiptera and Acatina. Because the chemical itself is very specific to the certain insects, it is very safe to the natural enemies and the other beneficial insects. It is a most successful IGR in the world for Homopterous insects such as planthoppers, whiteflies and scale insects, and is widely used in more than 80 countries. It is an ideal IGR for IPM (Integrated Pest Management) programs and is being recommended by many authorities around the world.
