How It Works: Mode of Action
Chlorpyrifos is an organophosphate in IRAC Group 1B. It blocks acetylcholinesterase, an enzyme needed for normal nerve signals in insects.
- Contact or feeding: Insects touch the treatment or swallow it while feeding.
- Action on nerves: Chlorpyrifos blocks acetylcholinesterase and disrupts normal nerve signals.
- Pest control: This action controls susceptible exposed pests; it does not guarantee control of resistant insects.
Long use does not make chlorpyrifos resistance-proof. Choose rotations by IRAC group, not just brand name.
