Product scienceHow It Works: Mode of Action
Lethal GR attacks the insect's nervous system by inhibiting the enzyme Acetylcholinesterase (AChE). This causes paralysis and eventual death of the pest.
- Contact Action: When soil pests (like termites) crawl through treated soil, the chemical penetrates their skin.
- Stomach Action: When pests eat plant roots or soil containing the granules, they are poisoned from the inside.
- Fumigant (Vapor) Action: The granules release a gas that travels through soil pores and plant stems, killing hidden borers that sprays cannot reach.
Note: This 3-way attack makes it highly effective against cryptic pests hiding deep in the soil or inside plant stems.

How to applyDosage & Application Guide
The Golden Rule: Always follow the "Dose per Acre" for accurate results.
How to applyDosage per Acre, Litre, & Pre-Harvest Interval (PHI)
| Crop | Dose (kg / Acre) | Water Application | Dose (kg / Ha) | PHI (Days) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Paddy (Rice) | 4 kg | Maintain 2-3 inches standing water | 10 kg | 30 |
| Sugarcane | 10 - 15 kg | Apply in furrows & cover with soil | 25 - 37 kg | N/A |
| Building (Pre-construction) | Varies | Broadcasting on plinth/foundation | ~2-5 g per sq. m | N/A |
*PHI = Pre-Harvest Interval: The minimum number of days to wait between the last spray and harvesting.
Useful detailsHow to Apply: Best Practices
- Timing (Paddy): Apply 15-30 days after transplanting (early vegetative stage) or when "Dead Heart" symptoms appear.
- Mixing: Mix the granules with a little sand or urea/fertilizer to ensure even distribution across the field.
- Coverage (Paddy): Keep water outlets closed and maintain standing water (2-3 inches) for 3-5 days after application to let the gas work.
- Safety: Always wear PPE (gloves, mask, goggles). Wash hands thoroughly after use. Do not use near fish ponds as it is toxic to aquatic life.
