8 topicsWhy farmers choose itWhy Choose This Product? Key Benefits
- ⏱️ Deep Penetration (Translaminar): It soaks into the leaf tissue to kill pests like Aphids and Mites hiding on the underside of leaves where normal sprays can't reach.
- ?️ Double Action (Insecticide + Acaricide): Saves you money by killing both chewing insects (Bollworms) and Mites in one go. You don't need a separate mite spray.
- ⏳ Kills Eggs (Ovicidal): It destroys pest eggs before they hatch, stopping the next generation of worms from attacking your crop.
- ?️ Japanese Quality Standards: Made with advanced emulsion technology by Nichino, ensuring the oil doesn't separate and every drop is effective.
- ? Resistance Breaker: Excellent for controlling pests that have become resistant to standard pyrethroids (like Cypermethrin).

Product scienceHow It Works: Mode of Action
Getrid attacks the nervous system of the insect. It is a powerful inhibitor of the enzyme Acetylcholinesterase (AChE).
- Contact & Stomach Poison: Pests die when they touch the spray or eat treated leaves.
- Nerve Overload: It blocks the enzyme that calms nerves down. This causes the pest's nerves to fire uncontrollably.
- Paralysis & Death: The insect suffers from tremors ("the jitters"), becomes paralyzed, and dies quickly.
Unique Advantage: Because it is "lipophilic" (oil-loving), it passes through the leaf surface to kill pests hiding on the other side.

| Vegetables | 400 - 500 ml | 150 - 200 L | 2 - 2.5 ml | 14 Days |
*PHI = Pre-Harvest Interval: The minimum number of days to wait between the last spray and harvesting to ensure the produce is safe to eat.

Frequently Asked Questions
1. What is the difference between Getrid and Getrid Plus?
Getrid is pure Profenofos 50% EC. Getrid Plus is a mixture of Profenofos (40%) + Cypermethrin (4%) for instant knockdown. Use Getrid for mites and hidden sucking pests; use Plus for heavy bollworm attacks.
2. Does Getrid kill mites (Acaricides)?
Yes! Getrid is unique because it kills both insects (caterpillars/sucking pests) and mites. You do not need to add a separate acaricide like Dicofol.
3. Can I use Getrid on Bottle Gourd or Cucumber?
NO. Profenofos is phytotoxic (harmful) to cucurbits (creeper vegetables). It will burn the leaves. Avoid use on these crops.
4. What if it rains after spraying?
Getrid requires about 3 to 4 hours of dry weather to be fully rainfast. Avoid spraying if rain is imminent.
5. Is it safe for Honeybees?
No, it is toxic to bees. Avoid spraying during peak flowering times or when bees are active. Spray in the late evening.
