Mode of Action
Understanding the mechanism of FENTHURON
Diafenthiuron is converted by sunlight and metabolic oxidation into its bioactive carbodiimide form. This active form inhibits proton-translocating ATPase in the mitochondria, disrupting energy production within the insect. The resulting energy depletion causes irreversible disruption of respiratory function. As a result, the target pests eventually die.
