krishikranti Paecilomyces Lilacinus Bio Insecticide – Natural Control for Soil Pests & Healthier Crops

Krishikranti Paecilomyces Lilacinus Bio Insecticide is a powerful biological nematicide made from naturally occurring soil fungus Paecilomyces lilacinus (Purpureocillium lilacinum). It provides effective, eco-friendly control of harmful soil-borne nematodes that damage plant roots and reduce crop yield.

Recommended for organic farming and safe for all crops, soil organisms, and the environment.

How It Works

Paecilomyces lilacinus spores penetrate nematode eggs and juveniles in the soil. The fungus forms a dense mycelium inside the host, destroys it completely, and releases new spores  creating a self-sustaining cycle of biological nematode control in the soil.
