Product details
Trassid Insecticide | Diafenthiuron 40% + Spinetoram 5% SC
A contact and feeding-action premix for the permitted sucking-pest uses in cotton and
chilli.
Crop focus: Cotton and chilli, with a whitefly and thrips overview. Match each
identified pest to the precise crop use on the pack.
Contact and feeding action: Susceptible insects encounter the treatment by contact
or ingestion; these are not instructions for a particular crop-application route.
Plan the full treatment: Confirm first timing, method, product amount, water,
coverage and harvest restrictions together before mixing.
Why Choose This Product? Key Benefits
-
🎯 Contact activity: Acts when susceptible
insects come into contact with the treatment, making correct placement important.
-
🐛 Feeding activity: Stomach action
contributes when susceptible insects ingest the treatment while feeding.
-
🧪 Ready-formulated combination: Diafenthiuron and spinetoram are supplied together in one SC formulation; a homemade blend of separate products is not equivalent.

How It Works: Mode of Action
-
The insect contacts or ingests the treatment: Contact and feeding exposure contribute to activity in susceptible insects. Follow
the exact crop-specific placement and coverage directions.
-
Diafenthiuron affects cellular energy machinery: The Group 12A component affects mitochondrial ATP synthase, an enzyme involved in
producing usable cellular energy. The causal link to insecticidal activity is not fully established.
-
Spinetoram disrupts nerve signalling: The Group 5 component acts at an allosteric site on nicotinic acetylcholine receptors,
causing excessive nerve activity. This is different from the competitive action of Group 4 products.
Compounds in Group 12 affect ATP synthase, but whether that effect leads to their biological activity is not
clear. A two-active mixture does not guarantee control of resistant insects. Account for both Groups 12A and 5 when choosing
effective, label-permitted alternatives.

Do not read this combined overview as permission to treat every listed pest in both crops. Keep the exact
crop–pest pairing within the supplied pack’s directions; do not extend it to every mite, aphid or vegetable pest.
Dosage & Application Guide
Confirm the exact crop–pest treatment
Before measuring product, confirm the permitted cotton or chilli pest use, product amount, water or coverage
requirement, application method, first treatment timing and harvest restriction together. Contact and stomach action do not establish
an automatic first-symptom trigger, spray route or nozzle.
Do not borrow quantities from another diafenthiuron or spinetoram product, or turn pack size into a tank
recipe. Rainfastness is not permission to ignore the pack’s rain-free period or weather restrictions. No automatic repeat schedule is
implied. A pre-harvest interval is the minimum time from the final treatment to harvest. A missing interval is not a zero-day
interval. Harvest restrictions, worker re-entry periods and repeat-treatment intervals are separate requirements.
How to Apply: Best Practices
-
Identify crop and insect: Confirm whether the exact cotton or chilli whitefly or thrips use is permitted on the supplied Indian
pack.
-
Match both ingredients: Check diafenthiuron 40% w/w plus spinetoram 5% w/w SC before selecting instructions. Do not recreate the
premix with separate products.
-
Establish timing and placement: Use the current crop–pest first-treatment stage and method, with the complete amount, water and
coverage requirements.
-
Apply under suitable conditions: Wear the specified protective equipment, follow the mixing sequence and weather directions, and
prevent drift and runoff. Do not assume rainfastness is immediate.
-
Record and reassess: Record the field, date and quantity. Respect harvest, worker-entry and repeat restrictions; both labels must
permit any proposed combination.
Frequently Asked Questions
1. Does the overview mean both pests are permitted on both crops?
Do not assume that. Match the exact cotton or chilli pest use to the supplied Indian label before selecting
a treatment.
2. What do contact and stomach action mean?
They describe how susceptible insects encounter the treatment: through contact or ingestion. They do not
substitute for crop-specific application instructions.
3. Does ATP-synthase inhibition prove exactly how diafenthiuron controls insects?
No. Its effect on ATP synthase is known, but whether that effect leads to its biological activity is not
fully established.
4. Can I spray just before rain?
Do not assume an immediate or universal rainfast interval. Follow the supplied pack’s rain-free period and
other weather restrictions.
5. Can I add another product or use extra product to overcome resistance?
Only when both current product labels permit the proposed combination for the crop and application method.
Physical mixability does not establish crop safety or permission to add another pesticide, fertilizer or adjuvant. Do not increase the
dose to overcome suspected resistance.
Safety & Disclaimer
Before you use it: Read the supplied Indian label and leaflet before opening the pack. Use only its
permitted crop, target and application method. Follow its hazard classification and handling restrictions, and wear the specified
protective clothing and equipment. Avoid skin and eye contact, inhalation and drift. Keep children, unprotected people and animals
away during handling and application. Do not eat, drink or smoke while handling or applying the product. Wash thoroughly after
work.
Store securely in the original labelled container, away from children, food, animal feed and water. Keep
product, drift, runoff, leftovers and equipment washings out of water sources and away from non-target areas. Follow the pack’s
weather precautions, equipment-cleaning instructions, beneficial-organism precautions and disposal directions. Never reuse empty
pesticide containers. Observe all applicable harvest, worker re-entry and repeat-treatment restrictions before the next
operation.
If accidental exposure or suspected poisoning occurs, stop work and seek medical help promptly with the
product pack or label. Do not self-administer antidotes, attempt home remedies or improvise treatment. Follow the supplied
first-aid directions while obtaining professional help.
