Heliox combines profenofos 40% and cypermethrin 4% in an EC insecticide for the bollworm complex in cotton. This listing is the 100 ml pack.
What it controls: Bollworm complex in cotton. Do not extend this recommendation to other crops or unrelated pests.
When to use it: Decide treatment according to pest occurrence and follow the current supplied label.
Before spraying: Measure the treatment area and use the matching product and water quantities. Pack size is not a pump dose.

AgroStar lists CIR-104683/2013-PROFENOFOS+CYPERMETHRIN(EC)(335)-2 for Advance Agro Life and CIR-218068/2022-Profenofos + Cypermethrin (EC) (442)-934 for Ulink Agritech. These product references do not authenticate an individual batch.
How It Works: Mode of Action
Heliox combines an organophosphate with a pyrethroid. IRAC places the active ingredients in different groups because they disrupt nerve function in different ways.
-
Profenofos, IRAC 1B: Inhibits acetylcholinesterase, an enzyme involved in normal insect nerve signalling.
-
Cypermethrin, IRAC 3A: Acts as a sodium-channel modulator in insect nerves.
-
Use the combination responsibly: Follow the cotton bollworm programme and select any rotation with a qualified adviser using both IRAC group numbers.
A two-active mixture does not remove resistance risk. Changing the brand name alone is not a change of mode of action. Pest identification, correct timing and even application remain important.

The leaflet specifies high-volume spraying with equipment such as a knapsack or foot sprayer. Choose the rate and water within the labelled range for the crop and pest situation using the supplied-label directions and qualified local advice.
Timing depends on pest occurrence. The leaflet gives 10–15 days between repeat applications; do not turn a claimed duration of effect into a shorter repeat schedule. Follow any stricter restriction on the supplied pack.
PHI is the time between the final spray and harvest: leave 14 days for cotton. Worker-entry restrictions are separate; follow the current supplied label before anyone re-enters.
Acre figures are rounded conversions using the original hectare programme. The leaflet does not give a fixed per-litre or per-pump recipe; do not create one by dividing the endpoints of the product and water ranges.
How to Apply: Best Practices
-
Confirm the use: Identify cotton bollworm infestation and read the current supplied pack. Do not use this programme on other crops.
-
Measure and calibrate: Measure the treatment area, select the labelled product and water quantities, and calibrate the sprayer for high-volume coverage.
-
Mix evenly: Use the measured product and water as directed on the pack. Agitate thoroughly to form a homogeneous mixture, and keep hands out of the spray liquid.
-
Avoid drift and exposure: Do not spray against the wind or allow drift onto people, animals, neighbouring crops or water. Never clear nozzles by mouth.
-
Keep the intervals: Observe the labelled 10–15-day repeat interval when further treatment is needed and leave 14 days after the last spray before harvest.
-
Check each tank mix: AgroStar describes broad chemical compatibility, but that is not approval for every mixture. Confirm the exact partner, crop and label permissions with the manufacturer before mixing.
