Indoxacarb is a broad-spectrum oxadiazine insecticide


Indoxacarb is an organic compound and a broad-spectrum oxadiazine insecticide. It can effectively control a variety of pests on crops such as grain, cotton, fruits and vegetables by blocking the sodium ion channel in insect nerve cells, making nerve cells lose their function and killing stomach. Indoxacarb has a unique mechanism of action. It exerts its insecticidal activity through contact and stomach toxicity. Insects enter the body after contact and feeding. Insects stop feeding, dyskinesia and paralysis within 3 ~ 4 h, and generally die within 24-60 hours after taking the drug. Indoxacarb is not easy to decompose even when exposed to strong ultraviolet light, and is still effective at high temperature. It is resistant to rain erosion and can be strongly adsorbed on the leaf surface. Indoxacarb has no internal absorption, but has strong permeability (similar to abamectin). Because indoxacarb is insoluble in water, high efficiency, low toxicity and no chronic toxicity, it can also make gel and bait to prevent and control health pests, such as cockroaches, fire ants and ants, besides controlling lepidopteran pests.In the United States, indoxacarb is positioned as the only lepidopteran pest insecticide that can control American grass bug. Indoxacarb can be used alternately with insecticides with different action mechanisms, which can effectively avoid the generation of crop resistance. Different from the traditional carbamate insecticides, indoxacarb is not a cholinesterase inhibitor, and no other insecticides have the same action mechanism. Therefore, indoxacarb has no cross resistance with pyrethroid, organophosphorus and carbamate insecticides. After more than 10 years of commercial use, indoxacarb has not been found to be harmful to any labeled crops.

Wide application range: Indoxacarb can be used in cabbage, broccoli, mustard, saffron, pepper, cucumber, cucumber, eggplant, lettuce, apple, pear, peach, apricot, cotton, potato, grape, peanut, soybean, rice, corn and other crops without adverse drug damage.

Broad insecticidal spectrum: Indoxacarb can prevent and eliminate a variety of pests such as Pieris rapae, Spodoptera litura, cabbage Spodoptera, cotton bollworm, tobacco green worm, leaf curling moth, apple bark beetle, leaf Zen, diamond, potato beetle and so on.

Strong compatibility: Indoxacarb can be used in combination with most insecticides to expand the insecticidal spectrum without antagonism or adverse reactions.
