Why farmers choose itWhy Choose This Product? Key Benefits
  • ⏱️ Instant "Lock-Jaw" Action: Stops larvae from feeding within 2 hours of application, preventing further crop damage immediately.
  • ?️ Translaminar Power: Penetrates the leaf surface to kill hidden pests sitting on the underside of leaves (where sprays usually miss).
  • Long-Lasting Residue: Remains effective inside the plant tissue for extended periods, reducing the need for frequent re-spraying.
  • ?️ Rainfast in 2-4 Hours: Rapid absorption means summer rains or irrigation won't wash away your investment once it dries.
  • ? Cost-Effective SG Tech: Soluble Granules dissolve completely without harsh solvents, offering high efficacy at a low cost per acre.

Product scienceHow It Works: Mode of Action

Xplode works on the nervous system of the insect using a unique "Stomach Action." It is specific to caterpillars and requires ingestion for maximum effect.

  1. Ingestion: The larva eats a treated leaf. The active ingredient binds to chloride channels in the insect's nerves.
  2. Paralysis (Lock-Jaw): This binding causes a massive flow of chloride ions, paralyzing the throat muscles. The insect stops eating immediately.
  3. Elimination: Unable to feed, the larva starves and dies within 2–4 days, though crop damage stops within hours.

Note: You might see live larvae for a day or two after spraying, but they will be lethargic and unable to cause damage.

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)
CropDose (g / Acre)Water (L / Acre)Dose (g / Litre)PHI (Days)
Cotton80 - 100 g200 L0.4 - 0.5 g10 - 14
Vegetables (Okra/Brinjal)60 - 80 g200 L0.3 - 0.4 g3 - 5
Pulses (Chickpea/Red Gram)88 - 100 g200 L0.5 g14

*PHI = Pre-Harvest Interval: The minimum number of days to wait between the last spray and harvesting. Note: Doses are in grams (g) as this is a granule formulation.

Useful detailsHow to Apply: Best Practices
  • Timing: Apply at the early larval stages (instars 1 and 2) for 100% control. Evening spraying is best to protect bees and avoid UV degradation.
  • Mixing: Dissolve the granules in a small quantity of water first, then add to the main tank. It forms a clear solution.
  • Coverage: Ensure thorough coverage of foliage. Use a Sticker/Spreader for waxy crops like Cabbage to prevent run-off.
  • Safety: Always wear PPE (gloves, mask, goggles). Wash hands thoroughly after use. Do not spray near fish ponds.
