Active Ingredient: Deltamethrin 100 EC (11% w/w)
Pack sizes: 50 ml, 100 ml, 250 ml, 1 Litre
Pest control remains a persistent challenge for farmers, leading to increased input costs from frequent insecticide applications. Bayer’s Decis® 100 represents an advancement over its predecessor, the legacy brand Decis ® 2.8 insecticide. This new formulation boasts a higher concentration for enhanced efficacy.
Decis® 100 effectively targets a wide range of insect pests, including aphids, psylla, diptera, coleoptera, orthoptera, and numerous others. It safeguards crops like cotton, tea, rice, as well as vegetables such as tomato, chili, okra, and onion. Low doses of Decis® 100 are sufficient to ensure effective pest management while maintaining environmental safety.
Decis® 100 contains the active ingredient deltamethrin, belonging to the chemical class of synthetic pyrethroid insecticides. It is a non-systemic pesticide that acts by contact and ingestion, exhibiting a broad-spectrum control of chewing and sucking insects.
Since Decis® 100 is a contact, non-systemic insecticide, adequate spray volume is essential to ensure good coverage of target plants and insects.
Decis® 100, with its active ingredient deltamethrin, exhibits strong adherence to the insect cuticle owing to its high lipophilicity. Upon penetration into the insect’s body, it targets the nerve axon, disrupting nerve transmission.
By altering the kinetics of sodium channel function, it interferes with the conduction of nervous impulses, ultimately leading to insect mortality.
Some of the benefits include
Delivers remarkable knockdown effect.
Deltamethrin in Decis® 100 exhibits good residual activity due to a range of specific physico-chemical properties, that includes:
The most effective synthetic pyrethroid is a single pure isomer.
Demonstrates repellent action and anti-feeding properties.
Ensures excellent rain-fastness.

The target pest, the specific crop, and the severity of the pest infestation will determine how frequently Bayer Decis® 100 needs to be applied.
Deltamethrin is effective against a wide range of insect pests, which include lepidoptera, homoptera; particularly aphids and psylla, but also some coccidea and cicadellinea, heteroptera, thysanoptera; selected thrips species, diptera, coleoptera, and orthoptera.
Deltamethrin is generally considered safe for use in agriculture when applied according to the recommended guidelines.
Both Decis® 100 and Decis ® 2.8 are insecticides by Bayer. Decis® 100 has a higher concentration of its active ingredient, deltamethrin. This makes it more effective at lower doses compared to Decis ® 2.8. Both protect crops from various kinds of pests while being environmentally safe.
Decis® 100 has a shelf life of about 2 years.
The active component of Decis® 100, deltamethrin, has unique physico-chemical properties that make it effective for an extended period of time. These properties help the pesticide stay active on the surfaces it has been applied to, giving it long-lasting pest protection.
