How It Works
Fenpropathrin disrupts the normal nerve signals of pests.
- Contact and feeding: It works when pests touch it or eat treated plant material.
- Nerve action: It interferes with normal nerve activity in pests it can control.
- Pest control: Affected pests can lose coordination, become paralysed and die. Correct targeting and application are important.
Changing brands does not always mean a different way of controlling pests. Follow the label’s guidance to help prevent pests becoming harder to control.
