Product Information
Mode of Action
Emamectin Benzoate: Binds to GABA receptors in the insect nervous system, increasing chloride ion flow, which causes paralysis and death (Knockdown).
Lufenuron: Inhibits chitin synthase, preventing the formation of chitin during molting. This disrupts larval development and prevents the pest from reaching the next stage (Long-term prevention).
Target Pests
- Diamond Back Moth (Plutella xylostella)
- Fruit Borer (Spodoptera litura, Helicoverpa armigera)
- Thrips (Scirtothrips dorsalis)
