Buy Metarhizium Anisopliae Bio-Insecticide for Coconut – Control Root Grubs and Rhinoceros Beetle

Your coconut palms face two major soil pests: root grubs (larvae of scarab beetles) that feed on roots, and rhinoceros beetle (Oryctes rhinoceros) that attacks the crown, causing V‑cuts and yield loss. Chemical soil drenches are expensive, harm earthworms, and often fail because grubs live deep in the soil.

Metarhizium anisopliae bio-insecticide is the proven, organic solution.

What the research says: The CPCRI, Kasargod strain of Metarhizium controls all stages of the rhinoceros beetle – grub, pupa, and adults. On‑farm trials showed 100% mycosis of grubs after three weeks, and pest attack reduced from 85% to just 10% after six months. The fungus is safe for earthworms.

How to apply Metarhizium bio-insecticide on coconut:

For root grubs and rhinoceros beetle grubs (soil application):

• Take 200‑250g of Bactostore’s Metarhizium powder per adult palm

• Mix with 20‑25 kg of well‑decomposed FYM or cow dung

• Apply in a 1.5‑2 metre basin around the palm, 15‑20 cm from the trunk

• Cover lightly with soil

• Apply twice a year – pre‑monsoon (April‑May) and post‑monsoon (September‑October)

For rhinoceros beetle breeding sites (manure pits):

• Mix 500g of Metarhizium powder with 50‑100 kg of FYM and place in manure pits where beetles breed – this kills grubs and breaks the life cycle.

For termite control (soil drench):

• Mix 1‑2 litres of Metarhizium liquid in 200 litres of water

• Drench around the root zone of affected palms (10‑15 litres per palm)
