Product Overview
HumaniLock is a microbial-based product designed to combat white grub infestations in all crops, with particular efficacy in sugarcane. Formulated with GRAS (Generally Regarded As Safe) species, HumaniLock offers a sustainable and eco-friendly solution for soil pest management.
This product is intended solely for soil application and is not recommended for foliar use.
Mode of Action
HumaniLock contains beneficial microbes that target white grubs at all growth stages (eggs, larvae, and pupae). The microbes act through the following mechanisms:
- Parasitism: The microbes directly attack and consume white grub larvae.
- Enzymatic Degradation: They produce enzymes that degrade the protective cuticle of the grubs.
- Toxin Production: Some microbes release biotoxins that hinder grub growth and reproduction.
- Competition: The beneficial microbes colonize the rhizosphere, preventing grub larvae from accessing roots.
