Monil SC primarily acts as an ingestion toxicant with some complementary contact action and acts by interfering in nerve impulse transmission. It interferes with the passage of chloride ions through the Gamma Amino Butyric Acid (GABA) regulated chloride channel, thereby disrupting CNS activity and at sufficient doses, causing insect death.
Mode of action: It has contact and ingestion action on target pests.
