Application |
| |
|
This non-specific systemic insecticide and acaricide,
used to control common mites, ticks and spiders with contact and
stomach action, quickly penetrates plant tissue. In common with
other organophosphorus, its toxic action is achieved by inhibiting
acetylcholinesterase, and enzyme essential for normal nerve impulse
transmission.
It is widely used, mainly applied against cotton pests. It is used
on citrus, olives, rice, maize, sorghum, sugar cane, sugar beet,
peanuts, potatoes, soybeans, vegetables, ornamentals and tobacco.
