Amitraz(Cat No.:I003188)is a potent acaricide and insecticide widely used in agriculture and veterinary medicine for controlling ectoparasites, particularly ticks and mites, in livestock and pets. It functions by inhibiting monoamine oxidase (MAO), leading to the accumulation of neurotransmitters, which disrupts the nervous system of the target pests. Amitraz is effective against a range of ectoparasites, making it valuable in managing infestations. However, it requires careful handling due to its toxicity to non-target species, including beneficial insects and aquatic organisms. Monitoring and adherence to safety guidelines are essential during its application.
