Mode of Action
Broflanilide insecticide is among the first compounds in the market introduced under the new IRAC group 30. With its unique mode of action, Broflanilide has no known cross-resistance with existing products in the market, making it a superior insecticide resistance management tool. Broflanilide insecticide works by preventing transmissions within the nervous system, which over excites the system and incapacitates the insect. It is fast-acting and quickly works across all insect life stages, providing excellent, long-lasting control of insects like hard-to-control wireworms.
