Indoxacarb is highly effective against almost all Lepidopteran pests and can be used to control a wide range of insects, including cotton bollworm, cabbage looper, diamondback moth, beet armyworm, fall armyworm, cabbage moth, silver Y moth, striped flea beetle, leafrollers, codling moth, leafhoppers, grape berry moth, grape leafroller, corn earworm, cotton leafworm, pasture plant bugs, potato tuber moth, and Colorado potato beetle.
In vegetable crops, it provides excellent control of common pests such as diamondback moth, cabbage looper, and beet armyworm. On fruit trees, it effectively protects against codling moth and grape berry moth. In cotton, it efficiently controls pests such as cotton bollworm.
Indoxacarb Dosage and Application Methods
Vegetable pest control: To control diamondback moth and cabbage looper at the 2nd–3rd instar stage, apply 30% Indoxacarb WG at 66–132 g/ha or 15% Indoxacarb SC at 132–199.5 mL/ha in water as a foliar spray.
Cotton pest control: To control cotton bollworm, apply 30% Indoxacarb WG at 99–132 g/ha or 15% Indoxacarb SC at 132–264 mL/ha in water as a foliar spray. Depending on the severity of infestation, spray every 5–7 days for 2–3 consecutive applications.
Other crops: For pest control on other crops, refer to the product label or follow the guidance of agricultural technicians to determine the exact dosage and ensure precise application. Use a backpack electric sprayer or UAV to ensure uniform coverage of both the upper and lower leaf surfaces and pest habitats, maximizing the efficacy of the treatment.
Indoxacarb Suitable Crops
Indoxacarb is suitable for a wide range of crops, including vegetables such as cabbage, cauliflower, Chinese kale, tomato, pepper, cucumber, zucchini, eggplant, and lettuce; fruit trees such as apple, pear, peach, apricot, and grape; as well as cotton, sweet corn, and potato.
It is particularly well-suited for vegetables that require multiple harvests. Due to its short pre-harvest interval, crops can be harvested shortly after application-some vegetables may be harvested as early as 2 days after treatment. This makes Indoxacarb an ideal choice for meeting food safety and production requirements in vegetable cultivation.
