Entigris® Insecticide: Quick Knockdown and Long Residual Insect Control
Entigris® insecticide provides quick knockdown and long residual control of several economically important insect pests, including stink bugs, whiteflies, caterpillars, thrips, beetles, weevils and aphids. It provides growers of several crops including soybean, sugar cane, corn, cotton and others, with a flexible control option in their existing management plan. Entigris is quickly absorbed by the leaves and moves throughout the plant to reach pests where they feed and live.

Mode of Action
The two complementary modes of action of dinotefuran and alpha-cypermethrin have been carefully selected to provide Entigris insecticide with the ability to control a broad spectrum of harmful chewing and piercing-sucking insect populations that occur at the same time in a crop. Dinotefuran acts by quickly disrupting the nervous system of pests, interfering with their ability to feed. Alpha-cypermethrin works by overexciting the pest’s nervous system and quickly leads to paralysis that stops feeding.
By combining the complementary modes of action of dinotefuran and alpha-cypermethrin, Entigris provides control of pest populations that overlap or occur together in the field.
