Unique Mode of Action
BotaniGard’s mode of action is unlike any conventional
insecticide. The applied spores infect directly through
the outside of the insect’s cuticle (the skin). Spores
adhering to the host will germinate and produce
enzymes that attack and dissolve the cuticle, allowing
it to penetrate the skin and grow into the insect’s
body. As the insect dies, it will change color to pink or
brown, and eventually the entire body cavity is filled
with fungal mass. The most common visible indication
of insect death is a discoloration of the larvae or
pupae. It is not necessary for a white fungal growth
to occur to know the product is working; the insect is
killed before this happens.
