Lambdacal Insecticide

Lambdacal is a pyrethroid insecticide. Pyrethroids are man-made versions of natural compounds from chrysanthemum flowers. They attack the insect nervous system, causing quick paralysis and death. Lambdacal gives fast knockdown and some residual protection. It controls aphids, beetles, caterpillars, flies, mosquitoes and termites. Farmers use it on vegetables, fruit trees, nut crops and cotton, and in greenhouses. Check the label for the active ingredient, its strength and the rate for your crop.
