What kind of insects does Triflumuron kill?

Triflumuron is a benzoylurea insect growth regulator. It mainly inhibits the synthesis of chitin in insects, preventing the formation of new epidermis when larvae molt, thereby causing deformities and death of the insects.

What kind of insects does Triflumuron kill?

Triflumuron can be used on crops such as corn, cotton, soybeans, fruit trees, forests, and vegetables to control the larvae of Coleoptera, Diptera, Lepidoptera, and psyllidae pests. It can also be used to control cotton bell beetles, vegetable moths, gypsy moths, houseflies, mosquitoes, large vegetable powder moths, west pine color roll moths, potato leaf beetles, and termites.

Crop control: It can be used on various crops such as cotton, vegetables, fruit trees and forest trees, effectively controlling pests on these crops.

Usage method: At the initial stage of pest occurrence, spray 8000 times diluted 20% fluticide suspension, which can effectively control pests. For instance, when controlling the golden-striped fine moth, the pesticide should be sprayed three days after the peak period of adult occurrence, and then sprayed again one month later. This way, it will basically not cause damage throughout the year.

Safety: Urea is non-toxic to birds, fish, bees, etc., and does not disrupt the ecological balance. Meanwhile, it has relatively low toxicity to most animals and humans and can be decomposed by microorganisms. Therefore, it is regarded as a relatively safe pesticide.

What are the effects of Triflumuron?

1. Triflumuron insecticides belong to chitin synthesis inhibitors. It acts slowly, has no systemic absorption effect, has a certain contact killing effect, and also has egg-killing activity.

2. Triflumuron can prevent the formation of exoskeletons during the molting of larvae. There is not much difference in the sensitivity of larvae at different ages to the agent, so it can be purchased and applied at all ages of larvae.

3. Triflumuron is a highly effective and low-toxicity insect growth inhibitor, which is effective against Lepidoptera pests and also has good control effects on Diptera and Coleoptera.

It should be noted that although Triflumuron has the above-mentioned advantages, it also has certain limitations. For instance, its action speed is relatively slow and it takes a certain amount of time to show the effect. In addition, since it has no systemic effect, it is necessary to ensure that the agent can come into direct contact with pests when using it.
