Systemics are the insecticides which control insects that feed by piercing and sucking plant sap. The controls in question must pass from the atmosphere and plant's exterior body parts and into inner fluids and tissues. They number among the most industrious and potent of treatments since they exclude Sevin and include cygon, malathion, orthene, and thiodan.
