Mantra Super is a systemic insecticide containing 70% Thiamethoxam, a neonicotinoid insecticide, effective against a wide range of sucking pests, including aphids, thrips, jassids, whiteflies, and mealybugs. It is available in a water-dispersible granule (WG) formulation and is primarily used for agricultural pest control.

Mantra Super acts as an agonist at the insect nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs), disrupting the insect's nervous system, leading to paralysis and eventually death. It is readily absorbed by plants and translocated throughout the plant tissues, providing systemic protection against sucking pests.

Mantra Super is applied as a foliar spray or soil drench. Foliar sprays target the leaves and stems of plants, while soil drenching allows the insecticide to be absorbed by the roots and distributed throughout the plant.

Precautions:

While Mantra Super is considered relatively safe when used according to label directions, it is essential to take precautions during handling and application.

• Avoid contact with skin, eyes, and clothing.

• Do not eat, drink, or smoke while handling or applying Mantra Super.

• Wash hands thoroughly after handling or applying Mantra Super.

• Store Mantra Super in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area, away from food, feed, and children's reach.
