Today the market offers several insecticides, analogues of Borea, based on lambda-cyhalothrin and imidacloprid. Often their operating principle is identical. The ratio of active ingredients, concentration and consumption of the drug differ slightly.

Gunner Duo

Systemic, contact and contact-intestinal effects on pests. Particularly effective against hidden pests.

Modern agricultural crops are gradually losing their innate ability to resist pests, and without modern insecticides it is difficult to obtain a decent harvest. Borei combines a quick effect, prolonged protection against pests, while it is completely removed from the vegetative parts and does not accumulate in the fruits.

Mechanism of action of the insecticide

This insecticide has a contact-systemic effect. After treatment, it forms a protective film on the surface of leaves and shoots, and also penetrates the plant tissue and spreads to all its parts. As a result, the Borey insecticide begins to act not only upon contact with the pest, but also after it feeds on the treated plant.

Penetrating inside the insect’s body, the active components block the transmission of nerve impulses from the brain to the peripheral endings. This immobilizes the insect. It stops feeding and dies after a while.

The first results become noticeable after 1 hour. A single treatment is enough to destroy an entire colony of pests. Borei can be used on crops 1-2 times per season.
