Mythri Insecticide (Fipronil 7% + Hexythiazox 2% SC)
The Ultimate Dual-Action Solution for Chilli Thrips and Mites ("Murda" Complex)
Coromandel Mythri is a premium, broad-spectrum insecticide designed specifically for the complex pest issues in Indian horticulture. It combines two powerful active ingredients to deliver a "Holistic Control" strategy: it kills adult pests instantly while simultaneously destroying their eggs to prevent future outbreaks.
Best For: Controlling the "Sucking Pest Complex" (Thrips, Red Spider Mites, Yellow Mites) in Chilli, Cotton, and Vegetables.
Why Choose Coromandel Mythri? Key Benefits
- ⏱️Instant Knockdown Power:
Contains Fipronil (7%), which paralyzes and kills active adult Thrips and Mites within hours of application, stopping crop damage immediately. - ?️Stops Future Generations (Ovicidal):
Contains Hexythiazox (2%), an Insect Growth Regulator that kills mite eggs and prevents larvae from molting. This breaks the reproductive cycle. - ⏳Long-Lasting Protection:
Offers extended residual control (up to 21-30 days against mites) compared to standard single-molecule sprays. - ?️Rainfast & Weather Proof:
The advanced Suspension Concentrate (SC) formulation sticks to leaves better than powders, resisting wash-off from light rains after drying (2-4 hours). - ?No Leaf Burn (Phytotoxicity Safe):
Water-based SC formula is gentle on crops. It does not cause burning or flower drop, even in high temperatures, unlike solvent-based EC sprays.

How It Works: Dual Mode of Action
Mythri attacks pests on two fronts to ensure they cannot survive or reproduce. This "Holistic Control" is vital for preventing the spread of viruses like Chilli Leaf Curl.
- Nervous System Attack (Fipronil): It acts as a GABA-gated chloride channel blocker. Simply put, it cuts the "brakes" of the insect's nervous system, causing uncontrollable tremors, paralysis, and rapid death in adult pests.
- Growth Inhibition (Hexythiazox): It targets the mite's ability to molt. It acts as an Insect Growth Regulator (IGR). When sprayed, it kills mite eggs and sterilizes adult female mites so they lay infertile eggs.
- Translaminar Movement: The solution penetrates the leaf surface, reaching pests hiding on the underside of the leaves (where mites usually live) that direct sprays might miss.
Result: Adult pests die immediately, and the population crash continues for weeks as eggs fail to hatch.
Target Crops & Pests
| Crop | Target Pest(s) |
|---|---|
| Chilli (Capsicum) | Scirtothrips (Chilli Thrips), Yellow Mites, Red Spider Mites |
| Cotton | Aphids, Jassids, Thrips, Whiteflies |
| Vegetables | Broad Mites, Aphids, Leaf Miners (Adults) |
Dosage & Application Guide
The Golden Rule: Always follow the "Dose per Acre" for accurate results. Mites hide under leaves, so high water volume is essential.
Dosage per Acre, Litre, & Pre-Harvest Interval (PHI)
| Crop | Dose (ml / Acre) | Water (L / Acre) | Dose (ml / Litre) | PHI (Days) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Chilli | 400 ml | 200 Litres | 2 ml | 7 Days |
| Cotton | 400 - 500 ml | 200 Litres | 2 - 2.5 ml | - |
| Vegetables | 400 ml | 150 - 200 Litres | 2 ml | 7 Days |
*PHI = Pre-Harvest Interval: The minimum number of days to wait between the last spray and harvesting to ensure safety for consumption.
How to Apply: Best Practices
- Timing: Apply at the first sign of thrips or when you see upward leaf curling. Avoid spraying during peak pollination hours to save bees; spray in the late evening.
- Mixing: Conduct a physical "jar test" before mixing with other chemicals. Generally compatible with Mancozeb or Azoxystrobin, but NEVER mix with alkaline products like Bordeaux mixture.
- Coverage: Mites live on the underside of leaves. Use a hollow cone nozzle and ensure thorough drenching of the plant foliage.
- Safety: Fipronil is toxic. Always wear PPE (gloves, mask, goggles). Do not allow runoff into fish ponds or water bodies.
Frequently Asked Questions
1. Does Mythri kill mite eggs?
Yes. The Hexythiazox component specifically targets and kills mite eggs and prevents larvae from growing, providing long-term control.
2. Can I use Mythri for Leaf Curl (Murda)?
Yes. "Murda" is caused by Thrips (upward curl) and Mites (downward curl). Mythri controls both, stopping the spread of the virus.
3. What is the dose for a 15-Litre spray tank?
For a standard 15-litre tank, use approximately 30 ml of Mythri.
4. Is Mythri safe for honeybees?
Fipronil is toxic to bees. You must spray only in the late evening when bees are not foraging to protect pollinators.
5. How quickly does it work?
You will see adult thrips and mites paralyzed within hours (Fipronil action). Complete control of the population (eggs and larvae) occurs over the next 3-5 days.
