Magnum 247 SC

Spectrum of action

Magnum 247 SC is effective against a wide range of pests, including aphids, thrips, whiteflies, bollworms, and fruit borers.

Thiamethoxam has a two mode of actions – systemic action and its acting like nerve poison.

Systemic Action: Thiamethoxam is easily absorbed by the plant and moves throughout its tissues, including leaves, stems, and roots.  

Nerve Poison: When insects feed on the treated plant, they ingest thiamethoxam. It disrupts their nervous system by binding to specific receptors, interfering with nerve impulse transmission. This leads to paralysis and eventually death.  

 While Lambda-cyhalothrin: It acts primarily as a contact and stomach poison. Also, when insects come into contact with or ingest lambda-cyhalothrin, it affects their nervous system. It targets sodium channels in nerve cells, causing hyperexcitation of nerve impulses. This overstimulation leads to paralysis and death.
