How It Works: Mode of Action
Thiamethoxam affects nicotinic acetylcholine receptors in the insect nervous system.
- Nerve receptors are affected: The active ingredient acts on nicotinic acetylcholine receptors in the insect nervous system.
- Normal signalling is disrupted: This interferes with normal pest function.
- Placement still matters: Use only the crop-specific application route and directions on the pack.
Rotate according to the crop label and resistance-management advice. Do not assume a different brand name or a premix eliminates resistance risk.
