BOXOR 404

1. Active Ingredients:
   • Profenophos 40% EC (Emulsifiable Concentrate)
   • Cypermethrin 4% EC (Emulsifiable Concentrate)
2. Description:
   Boxer 404 is a combination insecticide containing Profenophos and Cypermethrin. Profenophos is an organophosphate that acts as an acetylcholinesterase inhibitor, causing the accumulation of acetylcholine and leading to paralysis and death in pests. Cypermethrin is a synthetic pyrethroid that affects the nervous system of insects, leading to their rapid knockdown and death. The combination of these two active ingredients provides both contact and systemic action, offering broad-spectrum control over a wide range of pests. The emulsifiable concentrate (EC) formulation allows for easy mixing with water and effective application.
3. Features:
   • Dual Action: Combines the systemic activity of Profenophos with the contact action of Cypermethrin for enhanced pest control.
   • Broad-Spectrum Control: Effective against a variety of pests including aphids, caterpillars, whiteflies, bollworms, and mites.
   • Rapid Knockdown: Provides quick action against pests, reducing crop damage.
   • Long-Lasting Residual Effect: Offers prolonged protection, minimizing the need for frequent applications.
   • Convenient Application: EC formulation ensures easy mixing and even application.
