ETHIOCYPER 45 (Ethion 40% + Cypermethrin 5% w/w EC) is a combination insecticide formulated as an Emulsifiable Concentrate for broad-spectrum pest control. Ethion works by inhibiting acetylcholinesterase, which disrupts nerve function and causes paralysis, while Cypermethrin interferes with nerve signal transmission by acting on sodium channels, resulting in neurotoxic effects.
 This dual-action formulation provides effective contact and residual control against a wide range of insect pests, including American bollworm, mites, and thrips in cotton and chilli crops.
