Mechanism of action

Diflubenzuron belongs to the class of chitin synthesis inhibitors, blocks its formation, and interferes with the formation of the cuticle during molting. The product has ovicidal and larvicidal contact enteric effects. The active ingredient penetrates the eggshell and prevents larvae hatching or kills the insect larvae of different ages as a result of cuticle rupture during molting. If a larva is treated with the product at the latest age, cuticle formation may be disturbed in the pupa or adult insects. The maximum manifestation of the ovicidal effect is observed when the eggs are laid on the treated plants. Also, the product is able to additionally prevent laying viable eggs by adult insects.
