Application & Dosage

Mode of Action

Fipronil acts by interfering with the insect's central nervous system through contact and ingestion, leading to paralysis and death. Imidacloprid is absorbed by plant tissues and works systemically, affecting pests that feed on treated crops by disrupting signal transmission in the insect nervous system. Together, they provide long-lasting protection with excellent pest knockdown.
