Manik (Rallis India Limited) is a broad-spectrum insecticide that contains 20% SP of the active ingredient Acetamiprid. Acetamiprid is a neonicotinoid insecticide that works by disrupting the nervous system of insects. It binds to the nicotinic acetylcholine receptors in the insect's nervous system, which leads to paralysis and death.

Manik is effective against a wide range of pests, including sucking pests such as aphids, whiteflies, and thrips, as well as chewing pests such as caterpillars and beetles. It is also effective against mites. Manik has a contact and systemic action, which means that it kills insects when they come into contact with it or when they ingest it. It also has a residual activity of up to 14 days, which means that it remains active on the plant surface for a period of time after application. This makes it an ideal choice for controlling pests in a wide range of crops, including paddy, cotton, vegetables, and fruits.
