Mode of Action
Thiamethoxam belongs to the neonicotinoid group of insecticides. After seed treatment, it is absorbed by emerging roots and transported throughout the young plant. It binds to nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs) in the insect nervous system, causing insects to stop feeding, followed by paralysis and death.
