How It Works: Mode of Action
Spinosad acts on the insect nervous system. It is derived from fermentation products of the soil bacterium Saccharopolyspora spinosa; natural origin does not mean harmless.
- Exposure: Susceptible insects encounter residues through contact or feeding on treated plant material.
- Receptor action: Spinosad activates nicotinic acetylcholine receptors at an allosteric site.
- Nervous-system disruption: Nerve overstimulation leads to paralysis and control of susceptible insects.
Rotate with effective insecticides from other mode-of-action groups. Do not rely on repeated Group 5 treatments.

Cotton and chilli product and water rates follow the current Tracer Green handbill. Harvest intervals are Indian formulation-registration references; confirm the same crop-specific intervals on the supplied pack.
Red gram water volume is withheld because the manufacturer page and Indian formulation registration give different volumes. Obtain the current supplied-label water instruction before spraying.
Brinjal and grape rows are formulation-registration references. Confirm the crop, dose, water volume and harvest interval on the supplied Tracer Green label before use.
No fixed per-litre or tank dose is supplied. Match the product quantity and water volume to the measured area.
How to Apply: Best Practices
- Early treatment: Apply to young larvae or early infestation; follow the supplied crop-specific label.
- Preparation: Shake the bottle well. Apply alone; the Tracer Green handbill says not to mix with other chemicals.
- Coverage: Apply a uniform foliar spray over the crop. Avoid windy conditions and application just before rain.
- Re-entry: For cotton, chilli, brinjal and grapes, the Indian manufacturer leaflet specifies 24 hours before re-entry. Follow the supplied label for red gram; keep unprotected people out of treated areas.
- Spray count: The manufacturer’s formulation leaflet allows one or two sprays in cotton, chilli, brinjal and grapes. No repeat interval is supplied here; follow the supplied crop label. This does not establish a red gram spray count.
