Mode of Action
Thiocyclam hydrogen oxalate is a nereistoxin analogue insecticide with contact and stomach actions, which acts by blocking the synapsis of the central nervous system.
Imidacloprid has contact and stomach poison action and works by interfering with the transmission of stimuli in the insect nervous system by causing a blockage of the nicotinergic neuronal pathway thus preventing acetylcholine from transmitting impulses between nerves, resulting in the insect’s paralysis and eventual death.
Application Guide
