Item description
Lambada Insecticide by AgroStar | 1 Liter
Lambada is a contact and stomach-action insecticide containing lambda-cyhalothrin 4.9% CS. It is used as a foliar spray for the crop-specific insect pests listed below. This listing is the 1 Liter pack.
What it controls: The labelled borers, bollworms, thrips and other listed insects, with a separate target set for each crop.
Before choosing treatment: Identify the crop and pest, then confirm the complete crop-specific directions, including when the first spray is permitted.
Before spraying: Keep product quantity, water, treatment area or concentration basis, timing and harvest restrictions together. Bottle size is not a spray recipe.
Why Choose This Product? Key Benefits
- 🎯 Crop-specific targets: Covers the listed pests in ten crops, without extending each pest to every crop.
- 🛡️ Contact and stomach action: Acts through contact or ingestion. AgroStar describes quick knockdown, not a fixed control-duration guarantee.
- 💧 Capsule suspension: The active ingredient is held in small capsules suspended in water and released as spray deposits dry.

How It Works: Mode of Action
Lambda-cyhalothrin is a synthetic pyrethroid in IRAC Group 3A. The CS formulation and insect nerve-system action are separate parts of how Lambada works.
- Capsule release: The leaflet describes small capsules that release the active ingredient as spray deposits dry on pests and leaf surfaces.
- Contact and ingestion: The active ingredient acts through contact and stomach exposure. Even foliar coverage remains important.
- Nerve-system effect: Group 3A insecticides modulate sodium channels, disrupting normal insect nerve signalling.
Use the IRAC group, not the brand name alone, when planning resistance-management rotations with a qualified crop adviser. Another lambda-cyhalothrin or Group 3A product is not a different mode of action.

Dosage & Application Guide
Before preparing Lambada, confirm the complete current crop-specific directions with a qualified crop adviser. Keep the formulated product quantity, water, treatment basis, first-spray timing and harvest restrictions together. An isolated rate or pack size is not a complete spray instruction.
Application Requirements
- Product quantity: Use the formulated product quantity for the exact crop, target and treatment basis on the current supplied label. Pack size does not establish the application rate.
- Water and coverage: Keep the product and water quantities with the correct foliar method. Do not create a universal per-litre or per-pump recipe from an isolated area rate or concentration.
- First-treatment timing: Confirm the permitted crop stage and pest trigger before preparing the spray. Contact, systemic or knockdown activity does not establish when treatment should start.
- Further treatment: Follow the current crop-specific repeat interval and application limits. A frequency statement does not replace first-treatment directions.
- Harvest interval (PHI): Observe the crop-specific interval from the final spray to harvest. Confirm it before treatment; do not assume an unstated interval is zero.
- Worker entry: Follow the separate worker-entry restrictions and protective measures. The harvest interval does not replace them.
How to Apply: Best Practices
- Confirm the crop and programme: Use only the crop-target pairs in the table. Resolve product and water quantities, treatment basis, first-spray timing, further-treatment limits and harvest interval before mixing.
- Prepare the formulation: Shake well before use, as the leaflet directs. Measure the product and prepare it with the required water according to the supplied pack; do not mix with bare hands.
- Apply as a foliar spray: The leaflet specifies high-volume spraying with a knapsack sprayer fitted with a fine-mist nozzle or a mist blower. Calibrate suitable equipment and avoid drift or excessive overlap.
- Check any mixture: Do not assume another pesticide, fertiliser or adjuvant is suitable. Confirm the exact products, crop and label permissions before making a tank mix.
- Protect bees and water: Do not spray during active honey-bee foraging. Avoid use near aquaculture and prevent spray, runoff and washings from contaminating water.
- Respect entry and harvest restrictions: Avoid contact with treated areas until the spray is fully dry, and follow any stricter entry direction on the supplied pack. Keep the separate crop-specific interval from the final spray to harvest.
Frequently Asked Questions
1. Is Lambada systemic?
AgroStar describes Lambada as a contact and stomach-action synthetic pyrethroid. Do not rely on systemic plant movement to compensate for missed spray coverage.
2. Does one programme apply to all ten crops?
No. Keep each crop and target with its own complete product quantity, water basis, first-treatment timing and harvest restrictions. A rate or concentration alone is not a complete spray programme.
3. Is the 1 Liter bottle a fixed acre or tank dose?
No. The pack volume is the sale quantity. Determine the amount needed from the complete current crop directions and actual treatment area; do not assume a bottle equals one acre or one pump.
4. Can I use another lambda-cyhalothrin formulation in its place?
Do not exchange doses between formulations or brands. Match the exact formulation, crop, target and label directions. Changing to another Group 3A product does not change the mode of action.
5. When can people enter and the crop be harvested?
Avoid contact with treated areas until spray deposits are fully dry and follow any stricter pack directions. Harvest has a separate crop-specific waiting period after the final spray; confirm it before treatment and do not assume it is zero.
Safety & Disclaimer
Before you use it: Read the current supplied pack label and leaflet. Match the crop, pest, formulation, product quantity, water, method, first-treatment timing and harvest interval. Use only as directed for agriculture. This overview is not a complete spray programme, does not replace the label and does not authenticate an individual pack.
The Lambada safety data sheet warns that it is harmful if swallowed or inhaled and may cause an allergic skin reaction. Wear the label-specified protective clothing, apron, suitable chemical-resistant gloves, boots and eye or face protection; use respiratory protection where required. Avoid contact with the mouth, skin and eyes and do not breathe spray mist. Do not eat, drink, smoke or chew while handling. Wash exposed skin and contaminated clothing after work. Keep children, animals and unprotected people away. Avoid contact with treated areas until spray deposits are fully dry and comply with any stricter supplied-label entry restrictions.
Lambada is toxic to fish, aquatic invertebrates and honey bees. Do not spray during active bee foraging or near aquaculture. Prevent product, drift, runoff, spills and equipment washings from entering ponds, drains, streams or other water sources.
Store tightly closed in its original container in a cool, dry, ventilated, locked place, separate from food and animal feed. Do not reuse empty containers. Follow the current label and authorised local disposal requirements without polluting soil or water.
If exposure or illness occurs, stop work and seek urgent medical advice with the container, label or safety data sheet. Remove contaminated clothing and wash affected skin with soap and water. Do not induce vomiting or attempt an antidote or gastric-lavage treatment yourself.
