Item description
Parijat Abaddon Abamectin 1.9% EC Insecticide and Acaricide
Parijat Abaddon contains Abamectin 1.9% EC. Parijat classifies it as an insecticide and acaricide with strong translaminar activity plus contact and stomach action. The current Parijat product information lists it for mite control in grapes and for two-spotted red spider mite in rose.
Abamectin is classified in IRAC Group 6, the avermectin and milbemycin group. It acts as a glutamate-gated chloride channel allosteric modulator affecting nerve and muscle function in susceptible mites. Use only at the labelled threshold and rotate modes of action according to the label and local resistance-management advice.
Key Product Features
- Insecticide and acaricide: formulated for the labelled mite-control uses.
- Translaminar activity: moves into treated leaf tissue after correct application.
- Contact and stomach action: affects susceptible mites through spray contact and ingestion.
- IRAC Group 6: clear mode-of-action classification supports responsible rotation planning.
- Four listed pack options: 50 ml, 100 ml, 250 ml and 500 ml.

How Abamectin Works

- Target-site action: Abamectin modulates glutamate-gated chloride channels in susceptible mites.
