Talante WG is a broad-spectrum insecticide containing 25% thiamethoxam as the active ingredient. It is a water-dispersible granule (WG) formulation that is recommended for the control of a wide range of sucking pests in cotton, maize, vegetables, and fruits.

Thiamethoxam is a neonicotinoid insecticide that acts as a contact and systemic poison. It disrupts the nicotinic acetylcholine receptors in the nervous system of insects, which leads to paralysis and death. Talante WG is a fast-acting insecticide that provides long-lasting protection against sucking pests.

Talante WG is effective against the following pests:

• Cotton: Aphids (Aphis gossypii), jassids (Amrasca biguttula biguttula), whiteflies (Bemisia tabaci)
• Maize: Aphids (Aphis gossypii), jassids (Amrasca biguttula biguttula), thrips (Thrips tabaci)
• Vegetables: Aphids (Aphis gossypii), whiteflies (Bemisia tabaci), leafminers (Liriomyza trifolii), diamondback moth (Plutella xylostella)
• Fruits: Aphids (Aphis gossypii), whiteflies (Bemisia tabaci), mealybugs (Pseudococcus spp., Planococcus spp.)

Talante WG should be applied at the first sign of pest infestation. It can be applied by foliar spray or ground application. The recommended application rate varies depending on the crop and the pest to be controlled.
