Description

Noviflumuron is a benzoylphenyl urea insect growth regulator (IGR) that acts as a potent chitin synthesis inhibitor. This mode of action makes it a highly effective and selective agent for controlling insect pests in their larval stages, disrupting their ability to molt and develop properly. It is a critical active ingredient for professional pest management, particularly in the agricultural, horticultural, and public health sectors where long-lasting, targeted control is required.

Application

• Agricultural Insect Control: Used in integrated pest management (IPM) programs for key crops such as cotton, soybeans, and fruits to control lepidopteran pests (e.g., bollworms, armyworms).
• Professional Pest Management (PPM): Formulated into baits and sprays for the control of cockroaches, ants, and other urban pests in sensitive environments.
• Forestry Protection: Applied to protect forests and timber from defoliating insects like gypsy moths and sawflies.
• Public Health Vector Control: An important tool for mosquito larvicide programs, targeting larvae in breeding sites to prevent the spread of mosquito-borne diseases.
• Stored Product Protection: Used to protect grains and other stored commodities from beetle and moth infestations.
• Turf and Ornamental Care: Controls pests such as white grubs and sod webworms in golf courses, lawns, and ornamental plantings.
