TotalCare from Nature Neem
TotalCare
Water soluble formulation of cold-pressed neem oil for plant pest control
TotalCare is the commonly used botanical pesticide in organic agriculture and in gardens. It is obtained by emulsifying pure cold pressed neem oil obtained from the current season neem seeds. The choice and the dosage of emulsifier is optimised after long years of research so that all the magic ingredients of neem are well preserved. TotalCare is widely used in several countries around the world as an organic pesticide either singly or in integrated pest management programs. When compared to other known botanical pesticides, TotalCare is superior due to its wider application and its influence on nearly 200 pest species. It is significant that some of them are already resistant or inherently difficult to control with conventional pesticides (Example: floral thrips, diamond back moth and several leaf miners).
-
Eco friendly :Organic, natural and biodegradable.
- Nontoxic to mammals, animals, birds and aquatic life.
- No post-harvest indexes. No Residual toxicity carried over to the harvested product. Can be applied at any stage of the plant.
- The herbal power of neem provides a natural remedy by increasing the overall health of the plant and by increasing its resistance to pests and diseases.
- Carries the organic source of macro and micro-nutrients. Contains nearly 200 oligo-elements.
- Suitable for organic agriculture. Inspected by ECOCERT SA F 32600.
How it works ?
TotalCare belongs to the category of medium to broad-spectrum insecticide. It works by intervening at several life cycle stages of the insect. Following are the mode of the action of TotalCare on the insect pests.
- Disrupts insect reproduction and sterilizes insect reproductive organs.
- Reduces insect fitness as an insect growth regulator. The activity of ecdysone is suppressed, and the larva fails to moult, remains in the larval stage, and ultimately dies.
- Acts as a feeding deterrent and affects insect digestion, excretion, and locomotion. Produces anti-peristaltic wave in the alimentary canal which produces something like vomiting sensation in the insect. Thus, insects do not feed on the treated surface. Its ability to swallow is also blocked.
- Disrupts, delays or prohibits the capability of insects to develop resistance to pesticides.
- Does not affects the beneficial organisms like pollinators, predators, earthworms etc. When the population of predators are maintained, the exponential growth of pest populations is suppressed.
- Improves pesticidal effects, when mixed with conventional pesticides.
- Other pesticidal activity includes: Inhibition of the formation of chitin or exoskeleton. Disruption of sexual communication and thereby mating. Repellent activity on adults from laying eggs. Sterilization of adults in certain species
Other pesticidal activity includes:
Neem oil as an insect growth regulator
Neem oil as an insect growth regulator Scientific studies reveal that neem oil significantly increased aphid nymphal mortality while delays the development time of those surviving to adulthood.
TotalCare as a fungicide
TotalCare acts as a good preventive fungicide when fungal diseases are just starting to show. It coats the leaf surface which in turn prevents the germination of the fungal spores. Neem is effective against root rots, mildews, rusts, scab, leaf spot and blights. It works as a barrier and not as a systemic fungicide.
How is TotalCare different from other neem oil based or organic pesticides?
TotalCare is prepared by an experienced team of technocrats containing entomologists, chemists, agricultural scientists, and field level technicians who know what the practical difficulties in controlling pests without chemicals or conventional pesticides. TotalCare is a unique combination of neem oil obtained by the cold pressing current season seeds and natural surfactants which acts as stabilizers and emulsifiers and leaves no chemical residue in the final harvested produce. TotalCare is tested in several crops against a spectrum of pest species. Moreover, ‘Micro Emulsion technology’ facilitates the water-soluble formulation of TotalCare to produce smaller droplets of neem oil which can be well eaten by a targeted pest. Once this natural insecticide is eaten, it shows its effect as a swollen throat, resulting in the inability to feed. That’s why TotalCare is also known as a feeding deterrent.

Use cases
- For a preventive spray in a field crop, like cotton, maize., mix 10 ml of TotalCare per litre of water. 1500 ml of TotalCare shall be required to cover un hectare. In case of severe pest incidence, you can increase the dose up to 15 ml per litre water. i.e. 2250 ml of TotalCare per hectare. Correct the pH.
- For horticultural crops, trees and bushes that require more water to cover, mix 2-5 ml per litre of water.
- For tender or younger plants, decrease the dosage to 5 ml per litre of water.
- For kitchen gardens or garden plants where hand sprays are generally utilized, depending upon pest incidence, mix 5-10 ml of TotalCare per litre of water. If the pH of your water is more than 7, add a few drops of acetic acid (vinegar) to correct it. Drenching the plots with the diluted product at the rate of 2 ml per litre of water can kill nematodes and root pests.
Period of Application
Applicable during all the stage of crops such as seedling, pre-flowering, flowering, pre-harvest and just before harvest.
There is no residual effect. For fruits and vegetables, TotalCare can be applied just before or during the harvest.
TotalCare is suitable for Indoor/Outdoor use on Ornamental Flowering Plants, Trees, Shrubs, Foliage, Vegetables, Fruits, Nuts. Fits in hydroponics, aerophonics, top dressing sprays, soil drenching, root feeding and stem injection.
