Active Ingredient & Formulation Options
POMAIS Methomyl 90% SP is a highly concentrated insecticide formulated as a soluble powder (SP), containing 90% active ingredient methomyl by weight. This technical-grade methomyl ensures fast action, reliable pest control, and consistent performance across a wide range of agricultural applications.
Methomyl (CAS No. 16752-77-5) is a carbamate-based insecticide known for its dual action—both contact and stomach poisoning—which makes it especially effective against hard-to-control pests. The soluble powder formulation allows for easy dilution in water, ensuring uniform spray coverage and rapid pest knockdown after application.
Key Formulation Advantages:
-
High purity (90%): Ensures effective control at lower application rates, reducing cost per hectare.
-
Water-soluble powder: Dissolves quickly and easily in spray tanks without leaving residues.
-
Versatile mixing: Compatible with many other insecticides and fungicides, allowing tank-mix strategies in integrated pest management.
-
Minimal residue: Leaves minimal chemical residues on crops when used as directed, improving food safety.

Mode of Action and Target Pest Control
Methomyl is a fast-acting, broad-spectrum insecticide that works by inhibiting cholinesterase enzymes in the nervous system of insects. Once pests are exposed—either by contact with the spray or by feeding on treated leaves—they quickly lose coordination, stop feeding, and die within hours. This dual action (contact and stomach poisoning) makes methomyl highly effective against both chewing and sucking pests.
How It Works:
Methomyl blocks the breakdown of acetylcholine, a vital neurotransmitter in insects. As acetylcholine builds up, nerve impulses can’t stop, leading to paralysis and death. This unique mode of action allows methomyl to knock down pests rapidly, including those resistant to other insecticide classes.
Major Pests Controlled:
POMAIS Methomyl 90% SP provides reliable control of a wide range of crop-damaging insects, including:
-
Cotton bollworm (Helicoverpa armigera) – High resistance-breaking ability
-
Aphids – Rapid reduction of population in vegetables and cotton
-
Leafhoppers – Excellent performance in rice and fruit crops
-
Thrips – Particularly effective in greenhouse vegetables
-
Armyworms – Consistent knockdown in maize and pasture fields
-
Fruit flies – Effective when applied with bait sprays
This product is suitable for use in multiple crop systems including:
-
Cotton – For bollworm and aphid control
-
Vegetables – Against thrips, aphids, and caterpillars
-
Grains (rice, corn) – For leafhoppers, armyworms
-
Tobacco – For sucking pests
-
Fruits – For fruit fly and aphid control
Fast Knockdown = Visible Results
Distributors and commercial growers choose methomyl because it provides visible control within 24 hours of application. This quick action is especially valuable in outbreak situations where immediate pest suppression is critical.
Applicable Crops and Application
POMAIS Methomyl 90% SP is designed for multi-crop protection, making it a practical solution for distributors and growers serving diverse agricultural sectors. This insecticide is especially effective in row crops, horticulture, and tobacco, and can be applied using standard foliar spray equipment for fast and uniform coverage.
Recommended Crops:
You can use Methomyl 90% SP across a wide range of economically important crops:
-
Cotton – For controlling bollworms and aphids during the early and flowering stages.
-
Vegetables – Such as tomatoes, peppers, cabbage, and cucumbers, where it fights aphids, thrips, and caterpillars.
-
Grains – Including rice, corn, and wheat for leafhopper and armyworm control.
-

-
Fruits – Including citrus, apples, and grapes, where it provides excellent knockdown of aphids and fruit flies.
Application Rate & Method:
Methomyl 90% SP is typically applied through foliar spraying. Below are the recommended dosages for field application (based on 667 m² = 1 mu):
| Crop | Target Pest | Dosage (per mu) |
|---|---|---|
| Cotton | Cotton bollworm | 10–20 grams |
| Cotton | Aphids | 10–20 grams |
| Vegetables | Thrips, Aphids | 10–15 grams |
| Rice | Leafhoppers | 15–20 grams |
| Corn | Armyworm | 15–25 grams |
-
Dilution: Dissolve the product in 30–50 liters of water per mu for optimal spray volume.
-
Timing: Best applied at the early larval stage or as soon as pest presence is confirmed.
-
Frequency: Repeat application at 7–10 day intervals depending on pest pressure and environmental conditions.
Pro Application Tips:
-
Use high-pressure sprayers to ensure canopy penetration.
-
Apply in early morning or late afternoon to avoid rapid evaporation and maximize pest contact.
-
Combine with adjuvants or sticking agents for better leaf adhesion on waxy crops like cabbage or citrus.
By following the correct application method, you ensure maximum pest mortality, crop safety, and minimal residue, making your offering more competitive in quality-driven markets.
