Product scienceHow It Works: Mode of Action
Hamada works by targeting the nervous system of the insect. It is a non-systemic insecticide, meaning it relies on direct coverage.
- Contact & Stomach Action: The moment a pest touches a treated leaf or eats it, Hamada enters their body.
- Nervous System Overload: It binds to sodium channels in the insect's nerves, keeping them open. This causes continuous electrical firing (tremors).
- Paralysis & Death: The pest experiences rapid paralysis, stops feeding immediately, and dies shortly after.
Note: For termites, it acts as a repellent barrier. Termites will not cross the treated soil zone.

Useful detailsHow to Apply: Best Practices
- Timing: Spray during the cooler parts of the day (early morning or late evening) to avoid evaporation and protect honeybees.
- Mixing: Fill the tank halfway with water, add the required dose of Hamada, and stir well until a milky-white emulsion forms. Top up the water.
- Coverage: Use a Hollow Cone nozzle for the best mist. Ensure you spray the undersides of leaves where Whiteflies and eggs hide.
- Safety: Always wear PPE (gloves, mask, goggles). Wash hands thoroughly after use. Avoid skin contact to prevent temporary tingling sensations.

Frequently Asked Questions
1. Does Hamada kill termites?
Yes, it is highly effective against termites in sugarcane when applied as a soil drench over the setts before covering them.
2. Is this product systemic (does it move inside the plant)?
No, Hamada is a contact and stomach poison. It does not move within the plant, so thorough coverage of all foliage is critical for success.
3. Can I mix Hamada with fungicides?
Yes, it is generally compatible with common fungicides like Hexaconazole or Propiconazole. Always perform a small jar test first. Avoid mixing with alkaline substances (like Bordeaux mixture).
4. Why do I feel a tingling sensation on my skin after using it?
Bifenthrin can cause temporary skin sensitization (tingling/numbness). This is reversible. Use Vitamin E oil or cold water to soothe it, and always wear full protective gear.
5. What is the shelf life of Hamada?
When stored in a cool, dry place away from direct heat, Hamada typically has a shelf life of 2 years from the date of manufacture.
