Mode of Action

Ethion (40%) – Organophosphate Inhibits acetylcholinesterase enzyme in pests. Causes nervous system failure, leading to paralysis and death. Also acts as an acaricide, effective against mites. Cypermethrin (5%) – Synthetic Pyrethroid Disrupts sodium ion exchange in the nerve membranes. Causes hyperexcitation, leading to paralysis and quick pest kill. The combination targets the pest’s nervous system through two different pathways, offering enhanced effectiveness and synergy.
