Highly effective systemic broad-spectrum insecticid Imidacloprid 40 SC 70% WP 70% WDG

Product Description 

Imidacloprid is a white solid crystal or powder under ambient conditions and have a low volatility.

Imidacloprid has greater insecticidal activity than nicotine, and its stability is suitable for field use.

Use

Imidacloprid is the active ingredient used to control fleas in dogs and cats. Clothianidin is the major metabolite of thiamethoxam and both compounds are registered for use as insecticids. Widespread use increased greatly as alternatives to organophosphosphorus and carbamate insecticids because of their much lower mammalian toxicity and resistance developed to other pesticides.

Imidacloprid has become the most widespread insecticid used in the world.

The four neonicotinoids are acetamiprid

(l),imidacloprid (2), nitenpyram (3) and thiamethoxam (4) (IS0 draft proposal name).

They are potent broad spectrum insecticids possessing contact, stomach and systemic activity. The structures are given below and consist of substituted aromatic heterocyclic rings: 6-chloropyridinyl for acetamiprid, imidacloprid and nitenpyram and 3-chlorothiazole for thiamethoxam. Each compound has a methylene bridge, to a cyclic nitroguanidine moiety in imidacloprid and thiamethoxam, to a cyanoamidine in acetamiprid or to a diaminonitroethylene group in nitenpyram. The terminal group for all compounds is a strong electron-withdrawing substituent on an ethene or imino group.
These insecticids are used for foliar and soil application but imidacloprid also has a very high usage as a seed treatment. They have low rates of application: for example thiamethoxam is typically applied to foliage at rates of only 2.5-50 g ha^-1. The neonicotinoids are polar, nonvolatile solids with high water solubilities and they are non-ionised at pH values typically found in the environment. The insecticids are not readily hydrolysed. Their polar nature makes them potentially mobile in soil but this is mitigated by their low rates of application and, for acetamiprid and nitenpyram, short persistence. hnidacloprid and thiamethoxam are sufficiently persistent to be used as soil treaments. All the insecticids are efficiently translocated in plants and are effective systemic agents against sucking pests.

Mode of Action

Imidacloprid, the active ingredient in certain neuro-active insecticids. Reports show that when exposed to neonicotinid pesticides honeybees have probelms returnign home after foraging and bumble bee colonies grow poorly and produce fewer queens.
