Katyayani Organic Larvicide Bacillus Thuringiensis Control pests Like Larva Stage (Caterpillars), Tomato and Tobacco hornworm, Cabbage Worms, loopers, and Others.
Katyayani Larvicide (Bacillus thuringiensis kurstaki or Bt) is a Gram-positive, soil-dwelling bacterium, commonly used as a biological pesticide.
It is effective against all lepidopteran caterpillars like Helicoverpa, Spodoptera, Brinjal Fruit Borer, Diamond Black Moth, Cotton Bollworms, Cutworms, Leaf webber, Semilooper, Looper etc.,
It acts by producing a protein that blocks the insect's digestive system, effectively starving it; an infected insect will stop feeding within hours of ingestion and die within days.
It is toxic to a narrow range of insects and does not harm the natural enemies of insects, nor does it impair honeybees and other pollinators.
