- Mirasi 20% SP is a systemic insecticide containing acetamiprid . It is used to control sap-sucking insects such as aphids, whiteflies, and thrips, which lead to stunted growth, leaf deformation, and reduced yields. The insecticide works by absorption and translocation within plant tissues, ensuring that the active ingredient reaches the insects' feeding sites, including new leaves.
