How It Works: Mode of Action
Tajima works by attacking the "powerhouse" of the insect cell (Mitochondria). It creates an energy crisis within the pest.
- Energy Blockage: It inhibits the electron transport chain (METI), cutting off the insect's energy supply (ATP).
- Immediate Paralysis: Starved of energy, the pest becomes paralyzed and stops feeding instantly.
- Silent Death: The pest dies within 24 to 48 hours of exposure.
Note: This unique mechanism works effectively even on pests that have survived sprays of other chemical groups.
