Farmers often face problems with sucking pests in crops. Dealing with them requires different solutions. But mixing remedies in the right ratio can be challenging and risky. Bayer’s Lesenta is a ready-to-use mixture that makes it simple and safe for farmers to treat various pests. It is affordable, especially for small farms, and works well against many kinds of sucking pests like white grubs, jassids, and thrips. It is also effective against soil pests like termites and root grubs.
Lesenta contains two compounds, imidacloprid and fipronil. The dual combination makes it a powerful solution to control this age-long problem of pests. It works excellently for crops like sugarcane, groundnut, and cotton.
Lesenta is a combination of two powerful active ingredients. Both of these compounds have different mode of action (systemic and contact), providing complete control over pests like white grubs, jassids, and termites.
Lesenta requires low doses to provide effective control over various kinds of pests. It also helps in plant growth and thus increases harvests.
Imidacloprid interrupts the transmission of signals in the insect’s nervous system by opposing the nicotinic acetylcholine receptor, leading to nerve cell excitation, nervous system disorder, and eventual insect death.
Fipronil primarily acts as an ingestion toxicant and, to a lesser extent, has contact action. It interferes with nerve impulse transmission, contributing to effective insect control.
