Product Name: VERTICILIUM (Verticillium lecanii)

Product Description:

VERTICILIUM is a biological insecticide formulated with the entomopathogenic fungus Verticillium lecanii. It is highly effective against soft-bodied insects such as aphids, whiteflies, thrips, mealybugs, and scales. The fungus infects the insect cuticle, grows internally, and eventually kills the host by draining its nutrients. This eco-friendly solution helps manage pests without harming beneficial organisms or the environment.

• Effective against whiteflies, aphids, thrips, mealybugs, and scale insects

• Eco-friendly and safe for beneficial insects

• Leaves no harmful residues on crops

• Suitable for organic farming

Mode of Action:
The fungal spores attach to the insect cuticle, germinate, and penetrate the insect's body. The fungus proliferates inside the insect, producing toxins that disrupt metabolic functions, ultimately killing the insect within 3–7 days.

Vegetables, fruits, plantation crops, flowers, and greenhouse crops
