Bio Protector contains the fungus “Beauvaria bassiana” which is an important biological agent that are being used in recent times to control many dreaded insect pests, that are difficult to control by chemical pesticides. This white muscardine entomopathogenic fungus can control the pest by infecting the CUTICLE by its conidia.

Mode of Action: When Beauveria comes in contact with the insect pests, the spores will germinate and penetrate throughout the cuticle and proliferate in the haemocoel of the insect’s body.

In the insect body, the entomopathogenic fungus produces toxic metabolites called “beauvericin”.

It inhibits, the metabolic enzymes in insects system, leads ultimately to the total paralysis of the infected insect pest.
