Nichino Imicon (Imidacloprid 17.8% SL) is a systemic insecticide from the neonicotinoid group, designed for effective control of sucking pests such as jassids, aphids, thrips, and whiteflies. It works by interrupting nerve signal transmission in pests, causing paralysis and death. With both systemic and translaminar action, Imicon provides lasting protection to crops from within.
