Tatamida (Imidacloprid 17.8% SL) – Product Overview
Tatamida is a highly effective, systemic insecticide containing Imidacloprid 17.8% SL (Soluble Liquid). It is one of the most trusted chemistries globally for controlling a wide array of sucking pests. Because it is systemic, the plant absorbs the solution and distributes it through its tissues, ensuring even new growth is protected from hungry insects.
Key Features & Mode of Action
Systemic Action: Rapidly absorbed by the roots or leaves and translocated throughout the plant.
Neonicotinoid Group: It acts on the central nervous system of insects, causing a blockage in the transmission of nerve impulses, leading to the pest's eventual death.
Long-Lasting Protection: Provides extended residual control, meaning fewer sprays are required compared to contact-only insecticides.
Dual Application: Highly effective as both a foliar spray and a soil drench/basal application.
Recommended Uses on Various Crops
Tatamida is a versatile solution for field crops, fiber crops, and vegetables, specifically targeting pests that suck sap and weaken the plant.

Translaminar Movement: Even if sprayed on the upper surface of the leaf, it can move to the underside where many pests hide.
Application & Safety Tips
Application Timing: For best results, spray in the early morning or late evening. This avoids the heat of the day and protects beneficial pollinators like bees.
Water Quality: Use clean water for mixing to ensure the Soluble Liquid (SL) formulation dissolves perfectly.
Soil Application: For termite control in Sugarcane or timber, ensure the soil is moist to allow the insecticide to penetrate the root zone effectively.

Disclaimer: Strictly follow the dosage and waiting period (Pre-Harvest Interval) mentioned on the product label to ensure food safety and effective pest management.
