Mode of Action
Nymph/Larval and Adult Stages:
1. Respiratory blockage: Obstruction of the spiracles and tracheae, leading to suffocation
2. Cellular and membrane damage: Oil penetration through the cuticle, impairing cell membrane function and disrupting metabolic processes
3. Feeding inhibition: Coverage of the leaf surface with an oil barrier, preventing feeding and deterring oviposition
Egg Stage:
1. Disruption of gas exchange: Interference with respiration by blocking the egg's pores
2. Compromised egg integrity: Softening or dissolution of the protective chorion (outer shell), significantly reducing hatch rates
3. Embryonic toxicity: Penetration of oil into the egg, disrupting essential hormonal and enzymatic development
