Leafan 20

Leafan 20 (Chlorpyrifos 20% EC)

Leafan 20 is a broad-spectrum organophosphate insecticide designed to control a wide variety of soil and foliage-dwelling pests. With its effective contact and systemic action, it targets the nervous system of insects, providing quick knockdown and long-lasting protection.

Mode of Action:

Chlorpyrifos 20% EC works by inhibiting the activity of acetylcholinesterase, an enzyme essential for nerve function in insects. This leads to the accumulation of acetylcholine at nerve synapses, causing continuous nerve stimulation, paralysis, and eventual death of the pest.

Key features and Benefits:


  • Non-systemic insecticide with contact, stomach and respiratory action.
  • Delivers rapid knockdown, quickly eliminating pests upon contact.
  • Effectively controls a wide range of soil and foliage-dwelling insects.
  • Prevents pest reproduction by disrupting normal insect physiology.
  • Provides long-lasting protection, reducing the need for frequent applications.
