Neon Insecticide by Rallis India (Fenpyroximate 5% EC)
The Ultimate "One-Shot" Solution for Red Spider Mites and Yellow Mites
Neon Insecticide is a premium acaricide brought to you by Rallis India (A Tata Enterprise). Designed specifically to fight stubborn mite infestations, Neon uses advanced chemistry to protect high-value crops like Tea, Chili, and Coconut.
Unlike standard pesticides that only kill adult insects, Neon attacks the pest at every life stage—from the egg to the adult. It delivers a "shock action" that instantly stops mites from feeding, saving your crop from further damage immediately upon application.
Why Choose This Product? Key Benefits
- ⏱️Rapid "Shock" Knockdown:
Delivers immediate paralysis to mites. It penetrates the waxy layer of the pest quickly, providing visible results within hours of spraying. - ?️Complete Lifecycle Control:
It doesn't just kill adults. Neon destroys eggs (ovicidal), nymphs, and larva, preventing the population from bouncing back. - ⏳Stops Damage Instantly:
Even before the mite dies, Neon stops it from feeding. This prevents virus transmission (like Murda in Chili) and leaf damage. - ?️Long-Lasting Protection:
Offers extended control for up to 14 days, reducing the need for frequent re-spraying and saving labor costs. - ?Tata Quality Assurance:
Backed by the trust of Rallis India, ensuring high purity, consistent results, and reliable technical support.

How It Works: Mode of Action
Neon works by cutting off the energy supply of the mite. It is a Mitochondrial Electron Transport Inhibitor (METI).
- Contact & Entry: The chemical rapidly penetrates the mite's body and the leaf surface (translaminar action) to reach hiding pests.
- Energy Blockade: It binds to Complex I in the mitochondria (the "powerhouse" of the cell), instantly stopping the production of ATP (energy).
- Paralysis & Death: Without energy, the mite becomes paralyzed, stops feeding immediately, and dies shortly after. It also sterilizes adult females so they cannot lay viable eggs.
This unique action makes it effective even against mites that have developed resistance to older chemicals.
Target Crops & Pests
| Crop | Target Pest(s) |
|---|---|
| Tea | Red Spider Mite, Pink Mite, Purple Mite |
| Chili / Capsicum | Yellow Mite (Broad Mite) causing leaf curl |
| Coconut | Eriophyid Mite |
| Cotton | Jassids, Grey Mites |
Dosage & Application Guide
The Golden Rule: Always follow the "Dose per Acre" for accurate results. Ensure full coverage of the foliage.
Dosage per Acre, Litre, & Pre-Harvest Interval (PHI)
| Crop | Dose (ml / Acre) | Water (L / Acre) | Dose (ml / Litre) | PHI (Days) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Tea | 120 - 240 ml | 160 - 200 L | 1.0 - 1.5 ml | 7 Days |
| Chili | 120 - 240 ml | 150 - 200 L | 1.0 - 1.5 ml | 7 Days |
| Cotton | 150 - 250 ml | 200 L | 1.25 ml | 15-20 Days |
| Coconut | 10ml / Tree | N/A (Root Feed) | Mix with 1% Urea | - |
*PHI = Pre-Harvest Interval: The minimum number of days to wait between the last spray and harvesting to ensure export compliance.
How to Apply: Best Practices
- Timing: Apply at the very first sign of mite attack (bronzing of leaves or downward curling in chili).
- Mixing: Do not mix with highly alkaline products like Bordeaux mixture or Lime Sulphur.
- Coverage: Use a hollow cone nozzle. Ensure the underside of leaves and the apical bud (growing tip) are thoroughly wet, as mites hide there.
- Safety: Always wear PPE (gloves, mask, goggles). Wash hands thoroughly after use. Neon has a "Yellow Triangle" toxicity level, so handle with care.
Frequently Asked Questions
1. Can Neon Insecticide kill mite eggs?
Yes, Neon has excellent ovicidal activity. It kills eggs and immature nymphs, breaking the reproductive cycle of the pest.
2. Is Neon effective for "Murda" disease in Chili?
Yes. Murda (leaf curl) is often caused by Yellow Mites. Neon is highly effective against Yellow Mites and stops the leaf curling if applied early.
3. How long should I wait before harvesting Tea after spraying?
The Pre-Harvest Interval (PHI) for Tea is 7 Days. This ensures residues are below export limits.
4. Can I mix Neon with other fungicides?
Neon is compatible with most common fungicides and insecticides, but avoid mixing it with alkaline substances (high pH) as it reduces efficacy.
5. What is the difference between Neon EC and SC?
Neon is typically an EC (Emulsifiable Concentrate) which gives fast "shock" action. The SC (Suspension Concentrate) version is water-based, safer for tender crops, and preferred for export residue management.
