Product Description
PI Keefun is a METI (Mitochondrial Electron Transfer Inhibitor) insecticide that is effective against a broad range of sucking and chewing pests, including aphids, thrips, diamondback moth, tobacco caterpillar, scale insects, and some fungal diseases. It is also effective against some fungal diseases. Keefun is a contact and ingestion insecticide, meaning that it kills pests when they come into contact with it or ingest it.
Keefun works by inhibiting the electron transport chain in the mitochondria of the pest's cells. This leads to a cessation of the production and supply of energy in the cell, resulting in the death of the pest. The electron transport chain is a series of proteins that transfer electrons from one molecule to another, releasing energy in the process. Keefun blocks one of the proteins in the electron transport chain, preventing the flow of electrons and halting the production of energy.
