Methomyl Application

 

Methomyl is a broad spectrum carbamate insecticide; a fast acting anti-cholinesterase agent; and, a direct contact and stomach action poison. A plant systemic of high acute toxicity to mammals, it is non-cumulative and rapidly metabolized in both plants and animals to substances of lower toxicity.

Methomyl is particularly effective against organophosphorus resistant pests.

Methomyl is effective against a wide range of plant parasitic insects and stored product pests, such as heliothis armigera, heliothis assulta, pieris rapae, plutella xylostella, aphides, phytomyza atricormis on cotton, tobacco, orange vegetable and so on, especially those which are resistant to organophosphorus pesticides.

Methomyl is used most effectively as a foliar treatment of certain vegetable and fruit crop, field crops and commercial plantings of ornamentals.
