Product scienceHow It Works: Mode of Action
Tathastu utilizes a unique mode of action that targets the insect's muscular system, distinguishing it from older pesticide classes.
- Ryanodine Receptor Activation: The active ingredient binds to Ryanodine receptors in the pest's muscle cells.
- Calcium Release: This binding triggers an uncontrolled release of stored calcium within the muscles.
- Paralysis & Elimination: The calcium flood causes muscle paralysis. The pest stops feeding instantly and dies shortly after.
Effective on all larval stages and safe for non-target organisms.
