Flupyradifurone

Type: Insecticide

Mode of Action: Disruption of the nervous system of insects through the nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs)

Common Product Names: Sivanto Prime

What is it?

Flupyradifurone is a systemic insecticide that provides broad-spectrum control of various sucking pests, including aphids, whiteflies, and leafhoppers. It is known for its rapid action and effectiveness, making it a valuable tool in integrated pest management (IPM) programs. Unlike many traditional insecticides, flupyradifurone is designed to minimize harm to beneficial insects, such as pollinators, when used according to label directions.

How does it work?

Flupyradifurone is absorbed by plants and moves systemically throughout their tissues. When insect pests feed on the treated plants, they ingest the active ingredient. By disrupting the nicotinic acetylcholine receptors in their nervous systems, flupyradifurone causes paralysis and eventual death of the pests. This systemic action ensures that the active ingredient reaches pests even in difficult-to-reach areas of the plant.

Benefits

  • Rapid Action: Results can be seen quickly, often within hours of application, leading to fast control of pest populations.
  • Broad-Spectrum Control: Effective against a wide range of sucking pests, including aphids, whiteflies, and leafhoppers.
  • Systemic Activity: Provides thorough protection by moving throughout the plant, reaching pests in all parts of the plant.
