Cannon 20 SL is a broad-spectrum insecticide with systemic and translaminar movement in the plant. The product is rapidly absorbed by plant roots and leaves when applied foliar and moves through the plant xylem. The active ingredient Imidacloprid, enters insects by ingestion and contact where it acts on the nervous system. It interferes with the transmission of the stimuli in the insect’s nervous system causing a blockage of the nicotinic neural pathway. By blocking nicotinic acetylcholine receptors, imidacloprid prevents acetylcholine from transmitting impulses between nerves, resulting in the insect’s paralysis and eventual death. Imidacloprid is effective against sucking and biting insects such as froghoppers, trips, sogata, stink bugs, termites, leafminers, whitefly, and aphids.
