How it works?

Decis®2.8 is a non-systemic pesticide and contains the active ingredient deltamethrin, the world’s most effective synthetic pyrethroid insecticide. It is used in agriculture due to its photostability.

It acts through contact and ingestion, exhibiting a broad-spectrum control of chewing and sucking insects.

Mode of action

Deltamethrin, the active ingredient in Decis® 2.8, has strong affinity for the insect cuticle because of its high lipophilicity. 

Once inside the insect’s body, it interferes with nerve conduction by acting on the axon, altering the sodium canal’s kinetics, and thereby interfering with nerve transmission, causing the death of the insect.

Features and benefits of Decis®2.8

Some of the benefits include

Delivers remarkable knockdown effect.

Deltamethrin in Decis®2.8 exhibits good residual activity due to a range of specific physico-chemical properties, that includes:

  • Solubility in fatty tissues enables excellent penetration into the cuticle of leaves.
  • Very low solubility in water ensures effective rain-fastness.
  • Very low vapour pressure and therefore a good resistance to evaporation.

The most effective synthetic pyrethroid is a single pure isomer.

Demonstrates repellent action and anti-feeding properties.

Ensures excellent rain-fastness.
