Actellic Gold Dust is an effective post-harvest insecticide for use against grain pests, grain weevils, larger grain borer, red flour beetle, and lesser grain borer in maize.
Actellic 25EC contains pirimiphos-methyl, an organo-phosphorus compound, which kills by contact, ingestion, and fumigant action. Actellic 25EC interferes with nerve transmission leading to paralysis and death of the pest (cholinesterase inhibitor).
