How It Works
Acephate interferes with an enzyme that keeps insect nerves working normally. It acts after susceptible pests contact the treatment or eat treated material.
- Pests are exposed: They contact the treatment or eat treated material.
- An enzyme is blocked: Acephate stops an enzyme from clearing nerve messages normally.
- Nerves are disrupted: The messages build up and interfere with the pest’s nervous system.
Keep within the permitted application limits and follow crop-specific guidance on managing resistance.
