Features
- Maxima due to its novel mode of action effectively controls sucking insects that have developed resistance to conventional insecticides.
- It is economic in use as a single spray gives better control than two sprays of conventional insecticides.
- It is target specific, leaves no residue, and is environmentally highly acceptable.
- It is safe for beneficial insects and is therefore an ideal insecticide for use in the IPM program.
- It does not cause pest resurgence.
Mode Of Action: Maxima acts on the central nervous system of insects, causing irreversible blockage of postsynaptic nicotinergic acetylcholine receptors. This results in a rapid pulse leading to hyperexcitation, convulsions, paralysis, and finally to death.
Maxima acts by interfering with the nicotinic acetylcholine receptor of the nervous system unlike organophosphates, carbamates, pyrethroids which act on nerve fiber membrane proteins.
