How It Works: Mode of Action
The two active ingredients affect different parts of insect nerve signalling.
- Pest exposure: Follow the crop-specific contact and application directions on the current pack.
- Nerve signalling: Chlorpyrifos affects acetylcholinesterase, while the pyrethroid component affects sodium channels.
- Loss of normal function: The affected nerve system disrupts susceptible insects. No universal knockdown time or residual period is promised.
Use the stated mode-of-action group when planning resistance management. A different brand name does not necessarily mean a different mode of action.

Dosage & Application Guide
Historical formulation reference only: the table below is based on the September 2025 CIBRC major-use compilation. It is not a complete current Lethal Super 505 label or an independent instruction to apply. Confirm every value against the supplied pack before use.
Qualified formulation rates and waiting periods
| Crop / programme | Product rate | Water / acre* | Tank dose | Reference PHI |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Cotton | Current pack | 202–405 L | Not supplied | 15 days |
Historical cotton formulation reference: 500–1000 L water/ha, approximately 202–405 L/acre, with a 15-day reference PHI. No product-area rate is supplied because the source product column uses a mixed unit heading and the manufacturer’s 400 ml figure has no area basis.
*Area quantities are approximate acre equivalents of the original hectare values stated above. PHI means the time between the last treatment and harvest; “not stated” is not zero days.
The manufacturer’s online quantity may omit an area denominator. Do not infer it. Confirm the current brand rate, water, application method, timing, repeat limits, re-entry, rainfast period and harvest directions. No per-litre or tank recipe is derived here.
How to Apply: Best Practices
- Confirm the crop and target: Identify the problem and match it to the current supplied label, not just the active ingredient.
- Use the complete pack directions: Check the crop-specific rate, water, equipment, timing and placement before measuring product.
- Do not assume a mixture is suitable: Use another product or adjuvant only when the relevant labels permit that combination. A jar test alone does not establish crop safety or permission.
- Protect people and nearby areas: Follow protective-equipment and re-entry directions, prevent drift and water contamination, and observe the required harvest interval.
