EPN2X-Double Power - product known as Nematicide using specific types of entomopathogenic nematodes (EPN), primarily Heterorhabditis sp.
The entomopathogenic nematode (EPN) contacts the insect and enters the body through natural openings, accompanied by associated bacteria.
This interaction leads to septicemia, resulting in the death of the insect, which the nematodes subsequently consume.
The nematodes undergo their developmental stages and persist for two to three generations within their host organism
Upon depletion of food resources, the organism will exit the host cadaver in search of new hosts.
In addition to its two main benefits, the system stops harmful plant nematodes from getting into the roots and at the same time helps plants grow by providing them with special nutrients.
This biological solution is applicable to a diverse range of agricultural crops, promoting strong and healthy growth.

Mode of Action
After application, the nematodes (EPN) immediately attacks immature stage of insects.
They enter insect through various body opening or directly through the body wall once inside, it release toxic bacteria in to insect blood and kills the insect within 24 to 48 hours by causing blood poisoning.
They multiply in lakhs inside the insect body and finally they come out and begin search a new insects. The nematodes survives and parasitize new insects for several days & months.
Depending upon the pest targeted and the method of application it takes about 7 to 30 days for visible results.
ARIEPN controls the major soil pests like white Grubs, Termites, Rhizome weevils, Cut, worms, Cabbage maggots, soil stage of serpentine leaf minor, thrips and other cryptic pests (mostly borers).

Key Features & Benefits
Rapid and efficient.
Enhances agricultural productivity through pest management.
The product is environmentally sustainable, non-hazardous, and safe for use.
The product does not develop resistance in insect pests and presents no residue issues.
The action does not impact non-target organisms such as earthworms and natural enemies.
Its contains living Nematodes which actively search for insects hiding deeper in the soil and kill them.
It remains in the soil after application and survives without food for several months and once again become active on finding insects.
It is eco-friendly, broad-spectrum bio-pesticide which is safe to plants & earth worms.
It does not allow insects to develop resistance or resurgence.
