How It Works

Exponus® operates through a unique mode of action by targeting the GABA-gated chloride channels in the insect nervous system. By interfering with GABA receptors, it disrupts normal nerve signal transmission, leading to over-excitation, paralysis, and eventual death of the pest. This mechanism is distinct from other insecticide classes, making Exponus® an effective solution against pests that have developed resistance to existing chemistries.
