Pests are among the biggest threats to agriculture, capable of devastating crops and severely affecting farmers’ income. Traditional insecticides often fall short when facing pest resistance and mixed pest infestations. Runpo, a next-generation insecticide, has been designed to overcome these challenges. With the power-packed combination of Fipronil 40% and Imidacloprid 40% in water-dispersible granule (WG) form, Runpo offers broad-spectrum, long-lasting, and dual-mode pest control, making it a must-have in modern Integrated Pest Management (IPM) systems.
🔬 Active Ingredients & Mode of Action:
1. Fipronil (40%)
Chemical group: Phenylpyrazole
Mode of action: Inhibits GABA-regulated chloride channels in the nervous system of insects, leading to overstimulation, paralysis, and death.
Effect: Particularly effective on chewing insects like stem borers, termites, and beetles.
2. Imidacloprid (40%)
Chemical group: Neonicotinoid
Mode of action: Binds to nicotinic acetylcholine receptors in the insect’s nervous system, disrupting nerve signal transmission.
Effect: Best for sucking pests like aphids, jassids, thrips, and whiteflies.
Together, these two molecules work synergistically to control both sucking and chewing pests, making Runpo a dual-action powerhouse that delivers quick knockdown and long residual protection.
