Thiamethoxam 97%TC, CAS#153719-23-4

Introduction: Thiamethoxam is a broad spectrum  insecticide, systemic with contact and stomach action.

Thiamethoxam is synthetic and is known as a second-generation neonicotinoid compound belonging to the chemical subclass the Thianicotinyls. Much like nicotine, Thiamethoxam acts on certain types of receptors in the nerve synapse affecting the insects' normal bodily functions.

Aside from being a general insecticide, Thiamethoxam can also be used as a foliar application, a soil treatment, and a seed treatment. Thiamethoxam is systemic, meaning it can be rapidly taken up by the plant, moving through from the leaves all the way down to the roots.

It can be used to control a wide range of common pests such as aphids, whiteflies, thrips, lacewings, leafhoppers, mealybugs, wireworms, ground beetles, fire & carpenter ants, craneflies, mole crickets on turf grass & sod farms, landscape plants, ornamentals.

As a neonicotinoid, Thiamethoxam is effective against a wide range of insects. It also is less likely to experience resistance from insects. It does well against sap-sucking insect plants and can be applied directly to the plant foliage or to the soil.

Thiamethoxam's systemic action and transfer effect to other insects also makes it beneficial in protecting plants from insect damage.
