Isoxepac / 25 g

Isoxepac is a synthetic compound that has found utility in various applications, particularly within the realm of agriculture and pest control. It acts as an insecticide and acaricide, effectively targeting a wide range of pests including insects, mites, and nematodes. Isoxepac's mode of action involves interfering with the nervous system of pests, leading to paralysis and death. Its effectiveness is attributed to its systemic properties, allowing it to be absorbed by plants and distributed throughout their tissues to protect against pest infestations. Additionally, Isoxepac is valued for its low toxicity to mammals and birds, making it a safer option compared to some traditional pesticides.

Application

In practical applications, Isoxepac is used in agricultural settings to protect crops from damaging pests. It is applied either directly to the soil or as a foliar spray, depending on the crop and the specific pest threat. Its systemic nature ensures that it remains active within the plant, continuing to protect against pests even after initial application. Beyond agriculture, Isoxepac may also be used in greenhouses and nurseries to manage pest populations, ensuring healthy growth and yield of plants.
