Mode of Action

Lancer Gold contains two active ingredients with different modes of action.

Acephate

Acephate acts as an acetylcholinesterase (AChE) inhibitor. It interferes with normal nerve signal transmission in susceptible insects.

Imidacloprid

Imidacloprid acts as a nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (nAChR) competitive modulator. It affects the insect nervous system and disrupts normal insect activity.

Together, these ingredients provide a combined approach to managing the target pests listed on the product label. UPL identifies the mode of action as AChE inhibitor and nAChR competitive modulator.
