LARVOCEL
is broad spectrum biological insecticide made of
Beauveria
bassiana, a naturally occurring entomopathogenic fungus.
Beauveria bassiana is fungus, which causes a disease known
as the white muscadine in insects.
LARVOCEL
is used for the control of various inset pest like
Bollworms- Heliothis and Spodoptera, fruit borers, root
grubs, internodes borers, berry borers, short borers,
beetles and tea mosquito bugs.
Mode of Action
Once the spores of Beauveria bassiana come in
contact with the cuticle (skin) of susceptible insects, they
germinate and grow into their bodies.
The fungi multiply rapidly inside the insect and spread
throughout the insect body causing death due to tissue
destruction and by secretion of toxins inside the body of
the insect.
