Technical Specifications

How the Active Ingredients Work

1. Ethion — IRAC Group 1B: Acetylcholinesterase inhibition disrupts normal nerve signalling in susceptible insects.
2. Cypermethrin — IRAC Group 3A: Sodium-channel modulation disrupts insect nerve function.
3. Premix boundary: The two classifications may be stated factually, but they do not prove that the product overcomes resistance or is suitable for an unlisted pest.

No chilli, vegetable, mite, whitefly, thrips, aphid, jassid, pink-bollworm or spotted-bollworm claim is made here. Use only the crop and pest stated on the current Colfos label.

Dose & Application

The current physical Colfos pack label is required. This page does not combine numeric directions from different sources or publish a universal per-acre, per-litre, pump or tank dose. Follow the exact label for rate, spray-water volume, crop stage, timing, maximum applications, re-entry and PHI.

• Confirm cotton and American bollworm on the current supplied label before use.
• Wear the label-specified personal protective equipment and avoid exposure.
• Do not mix with a fungicide, fertiliser, adjuvant or another pesticide unless every applicable current label expressly permits it.
• Do not treat recommendation cards as a tank-mix or compulsory spray sequence.
