How It Works: Mode of Action
Cartap hydrochloride disturbs normal insect nerve signalling through nicotinic acetylcholine receptor channels.
- Exposure: Use the crop-specific granule placement stated on the Indan 4G pack.
- Nerve channels are blocked: Cartap interferes with normal transmission of nerve signals.
- Normal pest activity is disrupted: Susceptible insects lose normal function; no fixed time to control is promised.
Use the stated mode-of-action group when planning resistance management. A different brand name does not necessarily mean a different mode of action.

This page covers verified Indan 4G. “Mildan” appears in the listing title, but do not assume it is an interchangeable alias without checking the manufacturer and formulation on the supplied pack.
Dosage & Application Guide
The manufacturer explicitly gives the following paddy overview rate. Confirm the rate for your particular pest and application conditions on the current Indan 4G pack.
Qualified formulation rates and waiting periods
| Crop | Manufacturer rate | Dose basis | Water | Waiting period |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Paddy | 7.5–10 kg/acre | Product per acre | Current pack | Current pack |
The manufacturer’s public page does not allocate this overview range separately to stem borer, leaf folder and whorl maggot. Follow the current pest-specific label rather than choosing a rate from this range without that check.
No hectare-to-acre conversion is made for this rate: the manufacturer already states kilograms per acre. The historical formulation reference leaves water and harvest interval unspecified; that does not mean no water requirement or zero waiting days.
Confirm the current pest-specific rate, granule placement, application equipment, crop timing, water management, repeat limits, re-entry and harvest directions on the pack. Do not turn this granular product into a spray-tank recipe.
How to Apply: Best Practices
- Confirm the crop and target: Identify the problem and match it to the current supplied label, not just the active ingredient.
- Use the complete pack directions: Check the crop-specific rate, water, equipment, timing and placement before measuring product.
- Do not assume a mixture is suitable: Use another product or adjuvant only when the relevant labels permit that combination. A jar test alone does not establish crop safety or permission.
- Protect people and nearby areas: Follow protective-equipment and re-entry directions, prevent drift and water contamination, and observe the required harvest interval.
