Mode of Action:
-Lambda-cyhalothrin acts on the insect's nervous system by disrupting the sodium
channels, causing hyperactivity and paralysis.
-Thiamethoxam acts on the insect's nicotinic acetylcholine receptors, leading to
nerve impulse blockage and insect death.
-The combination provides both contact and systemic action for comprehensive pest
control.
