Applicaton:
Beta-cypermethrin is a broad-spectrum pyrethroid insecticide with contact and stomach action and rapid knock-down activity. It provides effective control of Lepidoptera, Coleoptera, Hemiptera, and other pests in a wide range of crops including vegetables (cabbage, cowpea, chili, leek), fruits (apple, pear, citrus), cereals (wheat, barley, corn, oats), cotton, soybeans, sunflowers, sugar beets, potatoes, tea, tobacco, and pastures. It is also used for public health pest control (mosquitoes, flies, cockroaches, ants).
Application timing varies by target pest.
For cabbage caterpillar on vegetables, apply at egg hatching peak to early larval stage. For bean pod borer on cowpea, spray at egg hatching stage. For Liriomyza sativae on leek, apply at early larval stage with 20-30 mL/ha (4.5% EC).
For cotton bollworm, apply at egg hatching peak to early larval stage. For fruit borers on apples and pears, apply during egg hatching peak before larvae enter fruits.
For public health pests, apply as residual spray on walls and surfaces at 0.2-0.4 g/m² (4.5% WP) for mosquitoes and flies, or 0.9-2.2 g/m² for cockroaches and ants.
The protective period is approximately 14 days, depending on pest pressure and weather conditions. Beta-cypermethrin is toxic to bees, fish, silkworms, and aquatic organisms — avoid application during flowering periods, near apiaries, sericulture areas, or water bodies.
Preharvest intervals (PHI) vary by crop: 7 days for cabbage (max 3 applications/season), 3 days for cowpea (max 1 application/season), 21 days for apples and pears (max 2 applications/season), 40 days for sugar beet (max 2 applications/season), 60 days for sunflower.
Cautions:
Toxicity to Non-Target Organisms: Beta-cypermethrin is highly toxic to honeybees, fish, silkworms, and most aquatic organisms . Avoid application during crop flowering periods, near apiaries, sericulture areas, or fish ponds . Do not contaminate water sources or allow the chemical to enter drains . It is moderately toxic to birds and earthworms .
Do Not Mix with Alkaline Substances: This product is unstable under alkaline conditions and will decompose rapidly . Do not mix with alkaline pesticides such as Bordeaux mixture or lime sulfur. Use neutral or slightly acidic water for dilution.
Environmental Fate: Beta-cypermethrin is non-persistent in soil (DT₅₀ approximately 27 days) and degrades rapidly on plant surfaces (RL₅₀ approximately 4.9 days) . However, it is highly toxic to aquatic life with long-lasting effects .
