Product details
Media Super Insecticide | Imidacloprid 30.5% SC
A systemic insecticide for selected sucking pests. Media Super contains imidacloprid 30.5% SC; it is not the same formulation as Media 17.8% SL.
What it controls: Cotton aphids, jassids and thrips. Confirm the paddy hopper use on the supplied label.
When to use it: After crop monitoring confirms a label-listed sucking pest and the need for treatment.
What to include: The crop-specific label programme, pollinator precautions and the correct 30.5% SC formulation.
Why Choose This Product? Key Benefits
- 🎯Focused sucking-pest use: The cotton recommendation names aphids, jassids and thrips. Match the target rather than assuming it controls every insect.
- 🌿Moves within the plant: Systemic movement means the active ingredient can be taken up and move within plant tissues.
- 💧Liquid suspension formulation: The SC formulation carries the active ingredient as a suspension. Keep to its own mixing instructions rather than those for an SL product.
- 🧠Acts on insect nerves: Imidacloprid disrupts normal nerve signalling in susceptible insects.
- 🔄Recognisable resistance group: The Group 4A identity helps distinguish a genuine change in mode of action from a simple brand change.

How It Works: Mode of Action
A systemic insecticide for selected sucking pests. Media Super contains imidacloprid 30.5% SC; it is not the same formulation as Media 17.8% SL.
- Treatment reaches the insect: Label-directed application brings susceptible sucking insects into contact with or allows them to feed on treated plant material.
- Nerve messages are disrupted: Imidacloprid affects receptors used for normal communication between insect nerves.
- Normal activity breaks down: Disrupted signalling impairs the insect’s normal activity. Systemic movement does not remove the need for correct application or resistance management.
Changing the brand name alone does not change the mode of action. Account for Group 4A in a locally advised resistance-management programme, together with crop monitoring and suitable non-chemical measures.
Target Crops & Pests
Match each target to its own crop or use site. A product listed for several crops is not a general treatment for every problem in those crops.
| Crop | Target Pest(s) |
|---|---|
| Cotton |
|
| Paddy (rice) |
|
Paddy hopper information is based on Indian guidance for imidacloprid 30.5% SC. Confirm the rice crop, target and method on the supplied Media Super label.
Do not turn a crop-spray dose into seed treatment, soil drenching or structural termite treatment. These need their own specific directions.
Dosage & Application Guide
Use the complete directions on the supplied label for your crop. The product amount, water volume, method, timing and harvest interval must be confirmed together before treatment.
Dosage per Acre, Litre, & Pre-Harvest Interval (PHI)
| Crop | Dose (ml / Acre) | Water (L / Acre) | Dose (ml / Litre) | PHI (Days) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Cotton | See note* | See note* | See note* | See note* |
| Paddy (rice) | See note* | See note* | See note* | See note* |
Do not transfer a dose from another formulation, crop or application method. Tank size alone does not determine the amount of product.
*Follow the current supplied label. An unstated value does not mean zero or unrestricted use.
PHI is the time between the last treatment and harvest. Follow the label separately for repeat treatments, worker entry and rain-free conditions.
How to Apply: Best Practices
- Confirm the crop and target: Identify the problem and check the exact product label before treatment. Do not use a crop name alone as evidence that every pest or weed in that crop is covered.
- Keep the full directions together: Select the crop, target, product amount, water, method and timing as one programme. Do not combine separate recommendations from different products.
- Measure accurately: Use dedicated measuring equipment. Do not use the container cap as an assumed measure or treat a retail pack size as an acreage rate.
- Protect the operator and surroundings: Use label-required protective clothing and equipment, avoid spray drift and keep people, animals, food and drinking water away from handling and treatment.
- Keep a treatment record: Record the date and use site and retain the supplied label. Observe its harvesting, worker entry, equipment-cleaning and disposal requirements.
Frequently Asked Questions
1. Is Media Super the same as Media 17.8% SL?No. Media Super contains imidacloprid 30.5% SC. Concentration and formulation differ, so the same millilitre dose must not be carried across.
2. Does it control all cotton pests?The cotton targets listed here are aphids, jassids and thrips. Do not infer control of bollworms, mites or other pests from a general sucking-pest claim.
3. Can I use it for rice hoppers?Brown and white-backed planthoppers are listed in Indian guidance for this formulation. Confirm that the supplied Media Super label covers your rice crop and the intended method before use.
4. Can I turn a crop-spray dose into seed or termite treatment?No. Seed, soil and structural termite treatments are different uses and require their own specific label directions.
5. Does systemic activity mean it is harmless to bees?No. Movement within the plant is a mode-of-action feature, not a safety rating. Protect pollinators, avoid exposure of foraging bees and follow the supplied label’s flowering and bee restrictions.
Safety & Disclaimer

If exposure or suspected poisoning occurs, stop work and seek medical attention promptly with the product label. Do not give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Read and follow the supplied label and leaflet before use.
