Esfenvalerate is a synthetic insecticide used to control a wide range of pests such as moths, flies, beetles, and other insects. It is used on vegetable crops (soya beans, sugar cane), tree fruit, cotton, maize, sorghum and nut crops, and non-crop lands. It also is used on a wide variety of household pests.

How effective is Esfenvalerate?

While Esfenvalerate pesticides deliver a quick knockdown, it is not an instant kill product. Some insects can die in as little as 30 minutes, but for others, it can take longer for the pest to die. Depending on your target pest’s life cycle, you may need to reapply the Esfenvalerate product in 14 to 21 days.
