Product description
Consido 25% WP insecticide and growth regulator for controlling larvae of biting insects and leaf and fruit worms 1 kilogram Consido 25% WP Consido 25% WP insecticide acts as a growth regulator for insects, containing the active ingredient Diflubenzuron 25%, and is used to help control larvae of biting insects and leaf and fruit worms in crops, when used according to the label instructions and recommended doses. Consido works differently from traditional insecticides; it affects the formation of chitin, which is necessary for larval molting, thereby hindering their growth and transition to the next stages. Therefore, it is a suitable option within integrated control programs, especially when targeting larvae at the beginning of their appearance before they develop into full insects or cause greater damage to the crop.
Growth regulator insecticide for controlling larvae of biting worms
Larvae of biting worms and leaf and fruit worms cause obvious damage to leaves, fruits, and young growths. Severe infestation can lead to weak growth, reduced fruit quality, and increased crop loss, especially if control is neglected in early infestation stages.
Consido 25% WP helps limit the development of small and medium larvae by disrupting the molting process, so its effectiveness is better when used early at the appearance of larvae. It does not produce a direct effect on adult insects; it primarily targets larvae, so it should be incorporated into a control program based on monitoring and proper timing.

Features of Consido 25% WP insecticide
Specialized in controlling larvae of biting worms.
Acts as a growth regulator and prevents chitin formation necessary for molting.
Reduces larval transition to full insects when used at the right time.
Helps break the pest’s life cycle and reduce subsequent generations within the field.
Effective when sprayed early at the appearance of small and medium larvae.
Has a prolonged effect compared to some fast-acting insecticides.
Suitable for use within integrated pest management programs (IPM).
Relatively safe for the crop when used according to recommended doses and instructions.
Target pests
Consido 25% WP is used within pest control programs for several larvae affecting leaves, fruits, and various crops, including:
Leaf worms
Fruit worms
Apple fruit moth
Citrus fruit moth
Olive fruit moth
Corn stalk borer
Small locust larvae
Various biting insect larvae
Note that Consido only affects larvae and does not give a direct result on adult insects, so it is preferable to use it when eggs are observed, larvae are beginning to hatch, or the first larvae appear in the field.
Uses of Consido in agricultural crops
Suitable for use in crops that are repeatedly affected by worm larvae, especially when the goal is to reduce pest development and break its life cycle within the field. It can also be used within integrated control programs aiming to reduce reliance solely on shock insecticides.
Most appropriate uses include:
Controlling leaf worms in vegetables and field crops.
Reducing fruit damage with early intervention.
Controlling biting larvae at the beginning of their appearance.
Using it within corn stalk borer control programs.
Reducing pest larval development before they turn into full insects.
Incorporating it into rotation programs with products from different groups to reduce resistance.
Method of using Consido 25% WP
Consido 25% WP is applied as a foliar spray after dissolving the required amount in an appropriate amount of water, stirring well until completely dissolved, then adding water to the spray tank while continuing to stir to obtain a homogeneous solution.
Recommended application rate according to product data:
Use 80 to 140 grams per 100 liters of water, depending on crop type, target pest, and infestation severity.
Preferably spray at the beginning of larval appearance and early infestation stages.
Ensure good coverage of the plant during spraying, especially leaves, young growth, and larval activity areas.
Repeat spraying every 14 to 21 days depending on infestation severity and control program.
For better results, do not wait until larvae become large or infestation spreads widely; growth regulators are more effective when targeting early larval stages.
Pre-harvest withholding period
The specified withholding period is 14 days. It is necessary to adhere to this period and not harvest the crop until after it has passed, always referring to the label and crop-specific recommendations before commercial or intensive use.
Precautions for using Consido
Read the full product label before preparation and spraying.
Do not spray during strong winds or high temperatures.
Adhere to recommended doses and do not increase concentration arbitrarily.
Use the insecticide within a rotation program to avoid resistance development.
Wear personal protective equipment during preparation and application.
Avoid contact of the insecticide with skin, eyes, or mouth.
Do not mix with other pesticides or fertilizers unless compatibility is confirmed.
Wash hands, clothes, and spraying tools thoroughly after use.
Keep the product away from children, food, and feed.
Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
Farmer’s tip
The best timing for using Consido is at the beginning of larval appearance, not after the infestation has reached an advanced stage.
Regularly monitor the field, especially new growth, lower leaves, and egg-laying areas.
When a stronger control program is needed, rotate Consido with products from different groups, and do not rely on a single active ingredient throughout the season.
