Fevalerate is a good contact and stomach insecticide
for a wide range of pests including those resistant to organochlorine,
organophosphorus and carbamate insecticides. Species controlled
include flies, fleas, bollworms, leaf eaters, caterpillars, scale
and other sucking insects.
Used to control insects on an extensive variety of leaves and
fruits in food, feed and cotton production; and for the control
of flies and ticks in barns and stables. Fenvalerate has no plant
systemic activity but is active for a relatively long period. Re-application
intervals should be based on levels of pest control attained rather
than a rigid time interval. May be applied to walls or used as a
slow release ear-tag formulation to control insects associated with
animal husbandry.
