Product Introduction

Diafenthiuron is a highly effective thiourea insecticide–acaricide developed for the control of sucking insects and mites. It is widely used in cotton, vegetables, fruit trees, tea, and ornamentals, particularly in regions facing resistance to conventional insecticides.Diafenthiuron combines contact and stomach action with a unique bioactivation mechanism inside insects, providing reliable control of whiteflies, aphids, mites, thrips, and jassids. Its balanced performance makes it a strong option for both field crops and greenhouse applications.

Mode of Action

• Diafenthiuron is a pro-insecticide that becomes biologically active after entering the insect body

• It inhibits mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation, blocking energy production

• This leads to feeding cessation, paralysis, and death

• Effective through contact and ingestion

• Active against both insects and mites, reducing the need for multiple products

Product Advantages

✔ Dual insecticidal and acaricidal activity

✔ Effective against resistant pest populations

✔ Stops feeding quickly, reducing crop damage

✔ Broad-spectrum control of major sucking pests

✔ Suitable for IPM and resistance rotation programs

Precautions

• Apply during early to mid pest infestation for best results

• Avoid spraying under high temperature or strong sunlight
