Mode of Action
Understanding the mechanism of HERABAN
Chlorpyriphos inhibits acetylcholinesterase in insect nerve synapses, preventing the breakdown of acetylcholine. This causes the accumulation of nerve transmitter, leading to overstimulation of the nervous system. As a result, insects undergo paralytic convulsions and eventually die. It acts through contact, stomach, and vapour action, providing effective control of target pests.
