Description
TRISHUL is a powerful biological insecticide developed using the entomopathogenic fungus Paecilomyces fumosoroseus. This fungus targets and infects soft-bodied insect pests such as whiteflies, aphids, mealybugs, mites, thrips, and caterpillars. Upon contact, the fungal spores adhere to the insect body, penetrate the cuticle, and grow internally, leading to the death of the pest. TRISHUL is a safe, eco-friendly, and sustainable alternative to chemical insecticides and plays a vital role in Integrated Pest Management (IPM).
