Pinch Hitter

Fipronil 40% +Imidacloprid 40% WG

Description

Fipronil primarily acts as an ingestion toxicant with some complimentary contact action and acts by interfering in nerve impulse transmission. Imidacloprid acts as an antagonist by binding to postsynaptic nicotinic receptors in the insect central nervous system.

Mode Of Action

Fipronil disrupts the insect central nervous system by blocking GABA-gated chloride channels and glutamate-gated chloride (GluCl) channels. It acts as a potent blocker of the GABA-regulated chloride channel. Fipronil is a broad-spectrum insecticide that belongs to the phenyl pyrazole chemical family. Antagonist to the nicotinic acetyl choline receptor in the central nervous system, Imidacloprid disturbs the proper signal transmission system leading to excitation of the nerve cell and consequently a disorder of the nervous system leading finally to the death of the treated insect.
