Key Benefits

• Highly effective against major sucking insects and secondary pests.

Mode of Action

Hi-Imida binds to the postsynaptic nicotinic acetylcholine receptors in the insect nervous system. This disrupts nerve transmission, causing paralysis and eventual death. Due to its powerful systemic and translaminar properties, the insecticide moves upward through plant tissues (acropetal movement), ensuring complete protection of new and existing growth.
