Lanzarta 1L is a professional-grade insecticide specifically formulated for the control of the large pine weevil (Hylobius abietis), a significant pest in UK forestry. This insecticide is designed to protect young conifer plantations, particularly Sitka spruce, from damage caused by pine weevil feeding.​
The active ingredient in Lanzarta is imidacloprid, a systemic neonicotinoid insecticide that targets the nervous system of insects, leading to effective control of the pine weevil population. Upon application, imidacloprid is absorbed and translocated within the plant, providing protection against feeding damage.​
