Application / Type |
Sprayable Liquid / EC |
|
Feature |
New Generation Organic Formulation to effectively control Mites and thrips; |
|
Active ingredient |
Chavicol, |
|
Mode of action
|
Contact, neurotoxin & Translaminar
After application of REDUX, the active ingredient, Chavicol, penetrates leaf tissue where its translaminar activity provides extended residual control of mites feeding on both the upper and lower surfaces of leaves. It quickly moves into leaves where it remains for several weeks and where it is taken up by sucking mites. REDUX is not systemic making good coverage essential. REDUX that is not absorbed into plants is quickly degraded and also a notable feature of chavicol active is that surface residues dissipate rapidly, reducing the impact on beneficial insects.
Foliage-feeding mites ingest the REDUX, stimulating the release of gamma-amino butyric acid (GABA) which binds to receptor sites in the muscle cells. This binding results in an increased flow of chloride ions into nerve cells, blocking nerve signals. Shortly after exposure, the pest stops feeding, becomes irreversibly paralysed and no further damage to the plant occurs.
REDUX has very limited contact activity. It has excellent nuerotoxicity and stomach activity and is most active by ingestion. It also exhibits anti-feeding activity hence insect stops damaging plant within few hours of spraying. |

Main customer benefits |
- A new generation botanical formulation leading to pest control at very low dosage
- Rapid penetration within the leaf surface and immediate translaminar action forms reservoir of active within young foliage.
- Presence of nuerotoxin mode of action as one of the action to control pest, facilitates longer duration of control.
- Rapid photo decomposition - surface residues dissipate rapidly and active is also safe for predatory and other beneficial insects moving across treated surfaces.
- Results in anti-feedent action and mobility ceasation within 2 to 4 hours of spray apart from being nuerotoxic.
- Movement into the leaf for rainfast protection and hence cannot be washed off by rain or irrigation once the leaf surface is dry.
- Active against all leaf feeding stages proving one shot control against various stages of pest.
