Micro Army Ento — consortium of encapsulated beneficial fungi
MicroEnto
Microbial biopesticides are natural products made from microorganisms like bacteria, fungi, or viruses that control pests and diseases in crops. These biopesticides target specific pests while being safe for humans, animals, and beneficial insects. They offer an eco-friendly, sustainable solution to pest management in agriculture.
The science
Mode of action
How Micro Ento works inside the plant and the soil.
Cuticular adhesion & enzymatic penetration
Entomopathogenic fungal spores adhere to the insect cuticle, germinate, and penetrate by secreting proteases, chitinases, and lipases that degrade cuticular layers.
Internal colonization & metabolic disruption
After penetration, the fungi proliferate within the insect hemocoel or tissues, disrupting vital physiological and metabolic processes.
Insecticidal toxin production
Produces bio-toxins such as beauvericin and destruxins that cause feeding cessation, paralysis, immune suppression, and eventual insect mortality.
Secondary sporulation & recycling
After insect death, fungi sporulate on cadavers, releasing fresh infective spores that enable continuous infection cycles and field persistence.
Humidity-driven infection efficiency
Performs optimally under favorable humidity conditions, enhancing spore germination, infection success, and rapid pest suppression.

Key benefits
5 reasons growers choose Micro Ento.
- 01
Broad-spectrum insect pest control
Effectively controls sucking and chewing pests such as aphids, whiteflies, thrips, mealybugs, termites, white grubs, and borers.
- 02
Resistance-free pest management
Biological infection-based mode of action minimizes the risk of resistance development in insect pest populations.
- 03
Long-lasting & sustainable control
Ensures prolonged pest suppression through spore recycling, soil persistence, and repeated natural infection cycles.
- 04
Safe to beneficial organisms
Non-toxic to crops, humans, livestock, pollinators, and natural enemies when applied as recommended.
- 05
Residue-free & IPM compatible
Leaves no chemical residues on produce and integrates seamlessly into Integrated Pest Management (IPM) programs and export-oriented agriculture.
