IIL Monocil Insecticide – Monocrotophos 36% SL for Crop Pest Control

Whether you're dealing with sucking insects, chewing pests, or borers, this systemic and contact action product neutralizes them by disrupting their nervous system. Monocrotophos acts as a cholinesterase inhibitor, leading to paralysis and death in target pests.

How Monocrotophos Insecticide Works
Monocrotophos insecticide interferes with pest nerve signals by inhibiting cholinesterase. This causes insects and mites to lose coordination, leading to a quick knockdown effect and eventual death. It acts through contact, systemic, and stomach action, making it ideal for pests at various growth stages.
