Zapac Insecticide | Thiamethoxam 12.6% + Lambda-Cyhalothrin 9.5% ZC
A two-active insecticide with systemic, contact and stomach activity. Match the pest to its crop and obtain the complete current-label application programme before use.
What it controls: The listed sucking and chewing insect pests, matched to cotton, maize, groundnut, soybean, chilli and tea.
When to use it: After identifying a listed pest and establishing treatment need under the current label and local crop advice.
What to include: The full exact-brand crop programme, pollinator precautions and crop-specific harvest interval; no universal tank dose is given.
Why Choose This Product? Key Benefits
- 🎯Two kinds of pest activity: The manufacturer describes contact and stomach action, meaning exposure can occur by touching the treatment or feeding on treated material.
- 🍃A systemic component: Thiamethoxam moves within treated plant tissue. Systemic activity does not establish a seed-treatment or drench approval.
- ⚙️Two nerve-system targets: The ingredients affect different parts of insect nerve signalling. Both are counted when planning resistance management.
- 🌾Crop-specific pest lists: The table separates the pests for each crop, avoiding a general “all sucking pests” or “all borers” recommendation.
- 🔎Not a virus cure: Reducing a listed insect pest is different from curing a plant infection. No promise to cure viral disease already present is made.
Technical Specifications
| Parameter | Details |
|---|---|
| Brand Name | Zapac Insecticide — Dhanuka Agritech Limited. |
| Technical Name | Thiamethoxam 12.6% + lambda-cyhalothrin 9.5% ZC. |
| IRAC MoA Code | Thiamethoxam: Group 4A (nAChR competitive modulator); lambda-cyhalothrin: Group 3A (sodium channel modulator). |
| Chemical Group | Neonicotinoid (thiamethoxam) + pyrethroid (lambda-cyhalothrin). |
| Formulation | ZC: combined liquid formulation. Exact application route and dilution must follow the supplied label. |
| Toxicity Label | Use the hazard information and protective measures on the supplied pack; no toxicity colour band is assigned here. |
How It Works: Mode of Action
Zapac combines thiamethoxam and lambda-cyhalothrin. Both act on susceptible insects, but at different nerve-system targets. It is not a fungicide, herbicide or plant nutrient.
- The insect encounters the treatment: The manufacturer describes contact and stomach exposure along with systemic activity. The precise crop application route must still be established from the current exact label.
- Thiamethoxam disrupts nerve signals: The Group 4A component affects nicotinic acetylcholine receptors, switches involved in normal insect nerve communication.
- Lambda-cyhalothrin affects nerve channels: The Group 3A component changes sodium-channel activity, disrupting the normal flow of nerve impulses in susceptible insects.
A two-active product is not resistance-proof. Count both 4A and 3A when selecting later insecticides and use field monitoring and appropriate integrated pest management. No fixed knockdown time, residual duration or yield increase is promised.

The manufacturer names tomato but does not identify a target pest in its tomato row. No tomato pest or numerical treatment is supplied here by borrowing another brand’s leaflet or a retailer’s table.
A general statement about vector control is not a recommendation for every disease-carrying insect or a claim to cure an infected crop.
Dosage & Application Guide
No numerical application programme is supplied here. The current exact-brand page lists area doses but does not establish the primary application route, water and harvest restrictions needed for a complete verified programme.
Dosage per Acre, Litre, & Pre-Harvest Interval (PHI)
| Crop | Dose (ml / Acre) | Water (L / Acre) | Dose (ml / Litre) | PHI (Days) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Listed crops | See note* | See note* | See note* | See note* |
Obtain the current supplied Zapac label and leaflet before treatment. Keep the crop, pest, product quantity, water, application method, timing and harvest interval together; do not borrow missing pieces from a different brand with the same ingredients.
*The current exact Indian brand leaflet was not available. Product and water rates, independent concentrations and PHIs are withheld until the full primary programme is established. The manufacturer’s generic systemic/contact descriptions do not by themselves establish foliar, seed or soil application.
No fixed repeat interval, numerical re-entry period, pump recipe or blanket tank-mixture approval is given. An unstated harvest restriction is not zero.
How to Apply: Best Practices
- Confirm the actual pest: Match the pest with the crop table. Use scouting and local treatment-threshold advice rather than treating every insect sighting as a reason to apply.
- Establish the exact-label route: Check the supplied Zapac leaflet for how the product is to be applied in the selected crop. Do not infer a spray, drench or seed treatment from ZC or systemic activity.
- Complete the dosage record: Before mixing, establish the exact product amount, water and treated area or other stated basis. Do not copy a tank recipe or a rate from a similar premix.
- Protect pollinators and surroundings: Follow the pack’s bee, flowering and aquatic-life restrictions. Avoid exposure of foraging bees and prevent drift or washings from reaching water.
- Record the last treatment: Keep the crop, target and application date. Use the actual crop-specific harvest and re-entry directions, not an unrelated repeat-spray interval.
Frequently Asked Questions
1. Is Zapac a single-active insecticide?No. It contains thiamethoxam 12.6% and lambda-cyhalothrin 9.5% in ZC formulation. Both active ingredients and both IRAC groups matter for treatment planning.
2. Can I use an Alika programme because the ingredients match?Not as a substitute for the current exact Zapac label. The brand, registration and crop programme must be verified; missing directions are not filled by transferring another brand’s leaflet.
3. Why are no numerical rates shown?The manufacturer page does not provide the full primary route, water and harvest instructions, and a current exact-brand leaflet was unavailable. A stand-alone rate could be mistaken for a complete safe programme, so it is withheld.
4. What tomato pests are covered?The reviewed manufacturer page names tomato but leaves its target pest unspecified. This description does not add tomato pests from a retailer or another brand. Check the exact current label for the intended tomato use.
5. Does controlling insect vectors cure viral disease?No. Insect management and treatment of an existing plant infection are different matters. No claim is made that Zapac cures viral disease already present in the crop.
