Ethion 40% + Cypermethrin 5% EC
Mode of Action
- Mode of Entry: Absorbed through foliage with translaminar movement, acting rapidly on target pests via contact, stomach (ingestion), and ovicidal (egg-killing) pathways.
- Mode of Action: Ethion inhibits the acetylcholinesterase (AChE) enzyme to disrupt neurotransmission, while Cypermethrin modifies voltage-gated sodium channels in the insect nerve axonic membranes, together causing rapid neural hyperexcitation, swift knockdown, paralysis, and death.
