Agricultural and ornamental crops have many enemies. In addition to diseases, they are attacked by various types of insects that suck out juices, gnaw green shoots, damage buds and roots, and spoil fruits and seeds. Modern effective insecticides are used to kill pests. The use of Fascord helps to cope with insects of various types, protecting plants for a long time.
Composition and release form of the systemic insecticide "Fascord"
The drug "Fascord" is a synthetic insecticide with contact-intestinal action from the group of pyrethroids. The main active substance is α-cypermethrin. It affects the central and peripheral nervous system of pests, causing their rapid death due to its high toxicity.
Fascord is produced in the form of CE - an emulsion concentrate, which must be diluted before use in special proportions.
Speed, mechanism and spectrum of action
The Fascord pesticide acts on almost all types of insects - pests of agricultural crops, ranging from sap-sucking cicadas and bugs, ending with the Colorado potato beetle and locusts. Like all pyrethroids, Fascord acts extremely quickly, leading to instant paralysis of the nervous system, which causes mass death of pests at different stages of development.
