Syngenta Simodis® Insecticide (Isocycloseram 9.2% w/w DC + 10% w/v DC)
The "Resistance Breaker" for Mites, Thrips, and Bollworms with PLINAZOLIN® Technology.
Simodis is a revolutionary new insecticide powered by the patented PLINAZOLIN® Technology. It is designed to kill pests that have become resistant to older chemicals. It works by attacking the pest's nervous system (GABA receptors) in a completely new way (IRAC Group 30). It provides broad-spectrum protection against sucking pests (Mites, Thrips, Jassids) and chewing pests (Bollworms, Fruit Borers) in a single spray.
Best For: Cotton (Bollworms/Jassids), Chilli (Thrips/Mites), Brinjal (Fruit Borer), and Cabbage (DBM).
Why Choose This Product? Key Benefits
- ?️360° Protection (Broad Spectrum): It is one of the few insecticides that kills Mites, Sucking Pests, and Caterpillars all at once. No need for tank mixing multiple products.
- ⚡Fast Knockdown & Stop-Feeding: Pests stop feeding within 2-3 hours of contact, preventing viral transmission and crop damage instantly.
- ?️Excellent Rainfastness: Absorbed quickly into the leaf. It becomes rain-proof in just 1-3 hours, making it safe for monsoon application.
- ☀️UV Stable (Long Lasting): It does not break down easily in sunlight, providing long residual protection (14-21 days depending on dose).
- ?Translaminar Movement: It penetrates the leaf to kill pests hiding on the underside (like mites and aphids), even if the spray hits only the top.

How It Works: Mode of Action
Simodis works on the pest's nervous system in a completely new way:
- Contact/Ingestion: The pest touches or eats the chemical.
- Receptor Blockade: Isocycloseram binds to the GABA receptor (the nervous system's "brake").
- Hyperexcitation: Without the "brake," the nerves fire uncontrollably.
- Paralysis & Death: The pest experiences convulsions, stops feeding immediately, and dies within 1-5 days.
Because it binds to a new site, pests resistant to older chemicals cannot survive it.

| Target | Dose (ml / Acre) | Water (L / Acre) | Dose (ml / 15L Pump) | 120ml Pack Covers |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Sucking Pests (Mites/Thrips) | 80 ml | 200 L | 6 ml | 1.5 Acres |
| Cabbage DBM | 120 ml | 200 L | 9 ml | 1 Acre |
| Borers / Bollworms | 240 ml | 200 L | 18 ml | 0.5 Acres |
*PHI (Waiting Period): Chilli/Brinjal = 1-7 days; Cabbage = 10 days; Cotton = 14-21 days.
How to Apply: Best Practices
- Water Volume: Use at least 200 Litres of water per acre. Good coverage is essential for controlling mites under the leaves.
- Mixing: This is a DC formulation. Pre-mix the dose in a small bucket of water first, then add to the tank. It mixes easily.
- Timing: Apply at ETL (when you first see pests). Do not wait for a full outbreak. Avoid spraying in peak heat (12-3 PM).
- Frequency: Do not use more than 2 times per season. Rotate with other chemicals to prevent resistance.
