Buy Verticillium Lecanii Bio-Insecticide for Maize in Chhattisgarh – Control Aphids, Leafhoppers and Thrip
Share
Maize is a major kharif crop in Chhattisgarh's northern hills region. But aphids, leafhoppers (jassids) , and thrips are common pests that damage leaves, reduce photosynthesis, and transmit viral diseases. Aphid infestation can cause stunting and cob deformation. Thrips in the whorl cause leaf curling and silvering. Chemical insecticides are often overused and harm natural predators.
Verticillium lecanii bio-insecticide provides effective, organic control of maize sucking pests.
Application methods for maize (per acre):
Seed treatment:
-
Take 100g of Bactostore’s Verticillium powder (or 100 ml liquid)
-
Mix with enough water to coat 10 kg of maize seeds
-
Shade dry for 30 minutes, then sow
-
This protects seedlings from early aphid and leafhopper attack.
Foliar spray schedule:
-
For liquid: Mix 2‑5 ml in 1 litre of water
-
For powder: Mix 5‑10g in 1 litre of water
-
Apply at 15, 30, and 45 days after germination
-
Spray on both sides of leaves, especially the undersides where aphids and leafhoppers hide
Whorl application for thrips:
-
At 15‑20 days after germination, direct the spray into the leaf whorls (central funnel of the plant)
-
This targets thrips hiding inside the whorl
-
Repeat at 30 days for full protection
Why this works for Chhattisgarh maize: Verticillium spores infect aphids, leafhoppers, and thrips through contact. Regular applications during the vegetative stage keep pest populations low, preventing virus transmission and ensuring healthy cob development.
