Product details
Cruzer Plus Insecticide by AgroStar | 250 ml
Cruzer Plus contains Thiamethoxam 30% w/w FS. It is a systemic seed-treatment insecticide for the listed early-season pests.
What it targets: Crop-specific sucking and soil pests through seed treatment.
Application route: Seed treatment only; this FS product is not the Cruzer 25% WG spray formulation.
This pack: 250 ml. Match the formulation, crop and pest on the supplied label before use.
Why Choose This Product? Key Benefits
-
🌱 Seed-focused protection: The FS formulation is intended for treating seed against the labelled early-season pests.
-
🎯 Crop-pest pairing: The leaflet gives separate targets for each crop, including maize shoot fly and soybean stem fly.
-
🔬 Systemic insecticide: Thiamethoxam is a neonicotinoid active ingredient that affects susceptible insects’ nerve signalling.
-
💧 Slurry application: Designed for uniform seed coverage using the label-directed slurry method, not a foliar spray recipe.

How It Works: Mode of Action
Thiamethoxam belongs to IRAC Group 4A, the neonicotinoid subgroup of nicotinic acetylcholine receptor competitive modulators. Its classification describes how it acts on insects; it does not make different formulations or uses interchangeable.
-
Systemic activity: The active ingredient moves within the plant after uptake. Cruzer Plus delivers the insecticide through the labelled seed-treatment route.
-
Nerve-signal disruption: Thiamethoxam interferes with nicotinic acetylcholine receptor signalling in susceptible insects.
-
Resistance planning: Both Cruzer 25% WG and Cruzer Plus 30% FS contain a Group 4A insecticide. Changing between them is not a change of mode-of-action group. Plan label-approved rotations with qualified crop advice.

Dosage & Application Guide
Seed-Treatment Requirements
Base the treatment on the crop and the measured weight of seed. Obtain the complete crop-specific programme from the supplied pack and authorised AgroStar guidance, including product quantity per kilogram of seed, slurry water, treatment timing and sowing instructions. Do not substitute a per-acre, per-litre or spray-pump rate.
The 250 ml pack is a sale quantity, not a treatment rate. Use only the labelled seed-dressing route. Follow any treatment-to-sowing, handling and harvest restrictions supplied with the product and seed; do not interpret a seed-dresser entry as permission for a zero-day foliar harvest interval.
How to Apply: Best Practices
-
Confirm the seed-treatment programme: Match Cruzer Plus 30% FS, the crop, target pest, seed weight and complete treatment and sowing directions before opening the pack.
-
Use dedicated equipment: Prepare the label-directed slurry in suitable seed-treatment equipment or a dedicated plastic drum or bag. Never use cooking utensils; stir with a tool, not bare hands.
-
Mix in the correct order: Start with part of the required water, add the measured product while stirring, allow it to disperse, then add the remaining label-directed water. Keep the slurry agitated throughout use.
-
Coat the seed evenly: Apply the required slurry while the seed is mixing and stop once coverage is uniform. Excessive mixing can abrade the seed and create dust; avoid breathing mist or treated-seed dust.
-
Use fresh slurry: The leaflet requires prepared slurry to be used within 24 hours. Do not treat that limit as a seed-storage period or an instruction to sow at a particular time.
-
Keep treatment separate: Use as a standalone treatment unless the exact proposed combination is permitted by the relevant labels and confirmed by product-specific advice. Do not assume compatibility with inoculants, fertilisers or other seed dressings.
-
Keep treated seed out of food and feed: Clearly identify treated seed and reserve it for planting only. Do not eat it, feed it to animals or use it for oil extraction. Keep it away from children, livestock and wildlife; prevent spills and collect spilled seed safely.
