2. Product Details
About Alika
Alika is an insecticide, a combination product of Thiamethoxam 12.6% + Lambda-Cyhalothrin 9.5% ZC. It offers systemic activity that is supplemented by the contact and stomach activity of Lambda-Cyhalothrin, thus giving control of several important sucking and chewing insect pests. Thiamethoxam is taken up by plant tissues and translocated in the plant to control pests feeding on the treated plants. Lambda-Cyhalothrin is a very fast-acting insecticidal agent that has contact and stomach activity and affects the nervous system of susceptible insects. When used in combination with other products it is suitable for controlling pests like aphids, jassids, thrips, whiteflies and other caterpillar pests in the registered crops. The ZC formulation is a suspension concentrate that is mixed into the capsule suspension.
