Achook is a Botanical nematicide/insecticide extracted from the Neem tree (Mwarobaini) containing azadirachtin & neem limonoids for the control of parasitic nematodes and insect pests.
Achook is biodegradable, environment friendly and ecologically safe. It has a very low toxicity and is not known to harm beneficial insects.
Achook has a low pre harvest interval of 8 hours and is ideal for integrated Pest management (IPM) particularly for resistance management of parasitic nematodes and insect pests in alternation with other pesticides.
Achook is recommended for control of Root Knot Nematodes and other parasitic nematodes on a range of crops. It is believed to act by inhibiting eggs from hatching, larvae from emerging and reduction in penetration ability of larvae.
