Mode of Action:
-
Beta-Cyfluthrin is an insecticide of the synthetic pyrethroid group. Beta-Cyfluthrin is acting by contact and ingestion. It acts on the insects nervous system as a sodium channel blocker.
-
In the pest, rapid excitation and impairment of coordination are the first visible symptoms of intoxication, followed by knock-down and death.
-
Imidacloprid is an antagonist to the nicotinic acetylcholine receptor in the central nervous system.
-
It disturbs the proper signal transmission system leading to the excitation of the nerve cells. Consequently, a disorder of the nervous system occurs leading finally to the death of the treated insect.
