🧪 Definition:

Mamec 6EC is a broad-spectrum insecticide and miticide used to control various mites, leaf miners, thrips, aphids, and other sucking or chewing pests on a wide range of crops. It works by contact and stomach action, causing paralysis and death in target pests.

🌿 Active Ingredient:

• Abamectin 6% w/v

• Formulation Type: Emulsifiable Concentrate (EC)

---

⚙️ Mode of Action:

Abamectin affects the nervous system of insects and mites by stimulating the release of gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA), which leads to paralysis and eventual death of the pest.
It has both contact and translaminar (systemic-like) activity — meaning it can move within the leaf tissue to protect even the undersides of leaves.
