Target pests:

How the active ingredient in Optigard® gel works
- Emamectin benzoate stimulates the release of gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) in the insect, an inhibitory neurotransmitter, leading to paralysis and death.
- Cockroaches are attracted to the highly palatable bait, which, when ingested, provides an insecticidal dose of emamectin benzoate. Cockroaches that feed on the bait will return to their nests where the active ingredient may be transferred to other cockroaches, including nymphs that are not actively foraging. Thus, a significantly larger number of cockroaches are controlled compared to those that initially fed on the bait.
