Testiphenone is an insecticide primarily used for controlling a wide range of pests, including caterpillars, beetles, and other larvae, in agricultural crops. It works by inhibiting the action of certain enzymes involved in the insect's nervous system, leading to paralysis and eventual death. By interfering with neurotransmission, Testiphenone disrupts the normal behavior and development of pests. It is typically applied in crop protection programs for its effectiveness in controlling pests while posing minimal risk to beneficial insects when used correctly.
