FANTOMEX GR

(Granular Insecticide)

FANTOMEX GR is a granular insecticide specially designed for long-lasting control of destructive stem and soil-borne insect pests in transplanted and direct-seeded crops. Its granular formulation allows precise placement near the root zone, ensuring steady release of the active ingredient over time.

FANTOMEX GR acts primarily through ingestion, causing muscle paralysis in target larvae by disrupting calcium regulation. This prevents feeding activity soon after exposure, minimizing internal plant damage.

The product is particularly effective in crops like paddy and sugarcane, where hidden pests cause yield loss before visible symptoms appear.

Target Pests

FANTOMEX GR controls internal-feeding larvae by stopping muscle movement, preventing feeding damage from stem borers and leaf folders, protecting tillers, reducing dead-heart incidence, and maintaining crop strength during early and mid growth stages.

Effectively Controls

  • Rice stem borer larvae
  • Yellow stem borer stages
  • Leaf folder internal feeders
  • Sugarcane early shoot borers
  • Paddy dead-heart pests
  • Whorl-feeding caterpillars
  • Hidden larval infestations
  • Soil-active chewing insects
  • Early instar borers
  • Tiller-damaging larvae
  • Internal feeding pests
  • Yield-reducing borers

Application Areas

  • Paddy Fields Controls stem borers at base
  • Sugarcane Crops Manages shoot borer larvae
  • Transplanted Rice Root-zone pest suppression
  • High Moisture Soils Granule stability assured
  • Endemic Borer Zones Long-duration protection
  • Preventive Soil Treatment Early larval control

Benefits & Advantages

  • Feeding Cessation Action Stops damage quickly
  • Long Residual Control Extended larval suppression
  • Granular Precision Targeted soil placement
  • Low Spray Dependency Reduces foliar applications
  • Internal Pest Control Reaches hidden larvae
  • Yield Protection Support Preserves tiller health
