Porcel 10 EC is a potent insect growth regulator (IGR) containing 10% Pyriproxyfen in an emulsifiable concentrate (EC) formulation. By mimicking the insect's natural juvenile hormone, Porcel disrupts normal development — preventing immature insects from maturing into adults and suppressing reproduction. This breaks the pest life cycle at its source for effective, long-lasting control.
Key Benefits
• Broad pest spectrum — controls whiteflies, silverleaf whitefly, mulberry scale, black scale, thrips, and more.
• Targets the life cycle — inhibits metamorphosis and egg viability, stopping populations before they rebuild.
• Dual action — works by both contact and ingestion (stomach action).
• Resistance management — a distinct mode of action (IGR), ideal for rotation with conventional insecticides.
• Versatile use — suitable for field and greenhouse crops, and valuable in public-health programs to manage mosquitoes and reduce the spread of vector-borne diseases.
Target Pests & Crops: Recommended for cotton, tomato, peach, eggplant, pepper, olive, and other crops affected by whitefly and scale insects.
Application: Foliar spray at 50 ml/100 L water (rates vary by crop). Observe each crop's PHI — e.g., 3 days for tomato, 14 days for peach and olive, 28 days for cotton. Always follow the approved label.
