Fipida (Fipronil 40% + Imidacloprid 40% WG) Insecticides

MODE OF ACTION

• Fipida interferes in nerve impulse transmission by blocking Gamma Amino Butyric Acid (GABA)- gated chloride channels in the central nervous system
• It blocks the passage/uptake of chloride ions resulting in excess neuronal stimulation
• This hyperexcitation of insects’ nerves and muscles leads severe paralysis and death of the insect
• IMIDACLOPRID acts as Nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (nAChR) Antagonist at the neuronal and neuromuscular junctions of central nervous system. It disturbs the proper signal transmission system which leads to excitation of nerve cell and followed by savior paralysis and finally to the  death of the treated insect
