Product scienceHow It Works: Mode of Action
Actara targets the pest's nervous system:
- Uptake: Absorbed by leaves and roots, it travels through the Xylem (water tubes) to all parts of the plant.
- Ingestion: When a pest sucks the sap, it ingests the chemical.
- Paralysis: The chemical blocks nerve signals. The insect stops eating immediately (Anti-feedant effect).
- Death: The pest becomes paralyzed and dies within 24-48 hours.
