About
Taidox 10 - Cypermethrin 10% EC
Taidox 10 is a highly effective insecticide that belongs to the Pyrethroid ester group of insecticides. It is designed to control a wide variety of insect pests across crops. Taidox 10 works through both contact and stomach poisoning, ensuring that the targeted insects are effectively neutralized either upon contact or ingestion. This makes it ideal for managing pests like caterpillars, aphids, and beetles in agricultural and horticultural crops. It is known for its rapid action, long-lasting control, and low toxicity to non-target organisms when used as directed.
MODE OF ACTION
Taidox 10 acts primarily by disrupting the normal function of the insect’s nervous system. Cypermethrin affects the sodium channels in the insect’s nerve cells, keeping them open longer than usual. This prolonged activation leads to paralysis, and eventually death of the insect. The dual action—contact and ingestion—ensures that both direct exposure to the insecticide and ingestion of treated plants result in effective pest control. This mode of action offers protection against a wide range of chewing and sucking insects, providing long-lasting crop safety.
