Mode of Action
Thiamethoxam belongs to the neonicotinoid group of insecticides. Once absorbed by the plant, it moves through the vascular system and binds to nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs) in the insect nervous system. This interrupts nerve signal transmission, causing insects to stop feeding, followed by paralysis and death.
