How It Works: Mode of Action
Catchh combines two insecticides with contact and stomach action. Both affect insect nerves, but at different sites.
-
Chlorpyrifos acts on nerve signals: It blocks an enzyme needed for normal insect nerve function.
-
Cypermethrin affects nerve channels: It alters sodium-channel activity, disrupting normal nerve signalling.
-
Pest control follows: Susceptible insects lose normal activity. Correct crop selection and the supplied label programme remain essential.
A combination does not prevent resistance by itself. Follow a crop-specific rotation plan that accounts for both IRAC Groups 1B and 3A.

Do not transfer cotton directions to rice or extend these uses to another crop without the current label.
Dosage & Application Guide
Numerical application programmes are withheld because the manufacturer booklet and separate formulation references do not establish complete current Catchh directions with matching treatment conditions, method, carrier and harvest requirements. Verify these together on the supplied pack before use.
Complete Programme Verification
Keep the listed cotton pest programme distinct from rice stem borer and leaf folder. Do not transfer product quantities, carrier requirements or harvest intervals between them.
The manufacturer booklet limits the authority of its recommendations and is not the supplied current label. Do not combine its product quantities with water or waiting periods from generic formulation references; no such numerical programme is supplied here. Missing harvest intervals do not permit immediate harvest.
No separate per-litre or tank dose is given. Application method, crop-stage timing, repeat intervals, maximum applications, rainfast time and field-entry precautions must come from the supplied label.
How to Apply: Best Practices
-
Match crop and pest: Select the cotton or rice use that appears on the supplied label.
-
Use the full pack directions: Follow its product quantity, water volume, mixing sequence, equipment, application method and timing. The listed crop and target scope alone is not a spray programme.
-
Check mixtures and restrictions: Avoid highly acidic or alkaline mixtures. Do not assume compatibility with other spray products. Check current local restrictions, including any applicable state restrictions on the ingredients.
-
Plan harvest and field entry: Confirm the waiting period and field-entry precautions before treatment and keep a record of the application date.
