Systemic insectide is a insectide that's absorbed through the roots of plants and makes the plants toxic. It works against bugs that suck or chew or the plant, such as aphids or caterpillers. It is usually sold as granules or a liquid.

Food poisoning is the way in which systemic insecticide kills aphids and cicadas.

Specifically, systematic insecticides can be applied as grains or a spray. The granular form is sprinkled and then watered to make the control available for intake by the plant, especially through the roots. The spray form is used to treat plant parts, especially leaves. Aphids prey upon a plant's life-giving phloem and xylem sap whereas cicadas feed upon the moisture in budding twigs. Either way, what is taken inside the insect pest in question will be fatally tainted goods.

As a systemic insecticide is absorbed by the plant only pests that actually suck the sap or otherwise damage the plant are affected by them, other pollinators and harmless insects are not harmed.
