Bayer Bicota

This granular insecticide blends Tetraniliprole (0.4%), a potent anthranilic diamide targeting insect ryanodine receptors, with Fipronil (0.6%), a phenylpyrazole compound that disrupts GABA-gated chloride channels in the insect nervous system. The result is a dual-mode action: rapid knockdown, robust ingestion toxicity, and extended residual control against both foliage-borne and soil-infesting pests.

Its granular form allows for easy broadcasting over crops such as rice and grain, ensuring even coverage and sustained efficacy. Beyond pest suppression, the formulation supports plant vigor through better root development and increased tiller production—enhancing water uptake and overall crop resilience.

Ideal for integrated pest management (IPM), this product tackles early infestations effectively while contributing to improved plant health and yield outcomes.

Bicota is an advanced granular insecticide tailored for paddy cultivation, delivering powerful protection against stem borers that damage rice stems and reduce yields. Its dual-action formulation rapidly disrupts pest feeding and extends protection well beyond standard treatments. Farmers can apply it simply by mixing with sand or fertilizer and broadcasting over the field.
