Jimmy (Anu Products Limited) (Diafethiuron 50% WP) is an effective and versatile insecticide manufactured by Anu Products Limited. It is a wettable powder (WP) formulation containing 50% diafethiuron, a diamide insecticide with contact, stomach, and vapor action.

Mode of action: Diafethiuron works by disrupting the chitin synthesis process in insects, preventing them from forming their exoskeletons. This disruption leads to molting problems and eventual death. Diafethiuron also has a vaporizing effect, making it effective against insects hidden or difficult to reach with foliar sprays.
