BOLT 505 is a broad-spectrum insecticide combining the power of Chlorpyrifos and Cypermethrin for effective control of sucking and chewing pests. It provides quick knockdown action along with longer residual protection, helping farmers safeguard crops and improve yield quality.
For Recommendation:
| CROPS | TARGET PESTS | DOSAGE (per acre/hectare) | SUITABLE TIME FOR APPLICATION (if any) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Cotton | Bollworms, Aphids, Jassids | 400–600 ml per acre (1000–1500 ml/ha) | At early pest infestation stage |
| Paddy | Stem Borer, Leaf Folder | 400–500 ml per acre (1000–1250 ml/ha) | At active larval stage |
| Vegetables | Fruit Borer, Thrips, Caterpillars | 300–500 ml per acre (750–1250 ml/ha) | On first appearance of pests |
Mode of Action:
Chlorpyrifos acts as an organophosphate insecticide inhibiting acetylcholinesterase enzyme, disrupting the nervous system of insects. Cypermethrin is a synthetic pyrethroid that affects sodium channel function, causing rapid knockdown and paralysis. The dual-action formulation ensures both contact and stomach toxicity.
OTE (Overall Technical Effect):
Provides fast knockdown effect with extended residual control, reduces repeated spray frequency, manages resistance due to dual chemistry combination, and protects crop yield by controlling a wide range of pests effectively.
Safety Precautions:
-
Wear protective clothing, gloves, and mask during spraying.
-
Avoid inhalation and skin contact.
-
Do not spray during strong wind or high temperature.
-
Keep away from children and livestock.
-
Follow recommended dosage strictly.
-
