Chess Insecticide, Fast Aphid Control

Description

CHESS Insecticide – 1Kg

CHESS Insecticide (500 g/kg pymetrozine, Group 9A) provides fast, reliable control of aphids in brassica vegetables, potatoes, and stone fruit. It fits well in IPM programs and helps protect yield and quality.

Why Choose CHESS?

• Rapid stop-feed: Aphids cease feeding quickly to reduce virus transmission and crop damage.
• Targeted control: Proven performance on key aphid pests in registered crops.
• IPM friendly: Selective mode of action supports beneficials and rotation.

How Does CHESS Work?

Pymetrozine targets chordotonal organ function in aphids. Disrupted signalling stops feeding, leading to effective population control and less disease spread.
