This exclusive formulation is based on the Altinco Exact Nature® formula, achieving optimal results through a precise composition.
This combination enhances the effects of the active substance providing greater coverage of the plant surface and creating a distinctive mode of action.
How does it work?
Its insecticidal mode of action, evaluated in more than 150 official trials, exerts an immediate and simultaneous triple action on the pest, maximizing efficacy:
- It forms a layer that covers the insects, hindering their mobility and blocking oxygen intake, ultimately leading to death by asphyxiation
- It attacks the waxy cuticle of the insect exoskeleton, causing damage to its structural integrity and
dehydration. - It creates a physical barrier on the plant surface, preventing further egg-laying and the development of new nymphs.
Altinco Grinward® ensures complete control over the insect life cycle: eggs, nymphs, and adults.
Altinco Grinward®: more than just an insecticide
