Insecticide Pesticide & Acaricide Lambda-Cyhalothrin 15g/L + Dimethoate 300g/L EC
Lambda-cyhalothrinA synthetic pyrethroid insecticide which is approved for use in the EU. It has a low aqueous solubility, is relatively volatile, is non mobile and, based on chemical properties, there is a low risk of it leaching to ground water. Lambda cyhalothrin is highly toxic to mammals and is a known irritant. It is also highly toxic to fish, aquatic invertebrates and honey bees. It is moderately toxic to earthworms
Description: A quick-acting insecticide used to control a wide spectrum of agricultural crop and public health pests
Example pests controlled: Aphids; Thrips; Colorado beetles; Caterpillars; Mosquitoes; Ticks; Flies
Example applications: Cotton; Cereals; Potatoes; Hops; Vegetables

Dimethoate is an organophosphate insecticide approved for use in the EU and in other parts of the world. It is highly soluble in water, has low groundwater leaching potential and is volatile. It is non-persistent in soil, mobile but does not normally persist in aerobic aquatic systems. It is moderately toxic to mammals but may have serious health implications for humans as it is an acetyl cholinesterase inhibitor and may cause reproduction or development effects. It is highly toxic to birds and honeybees, moderately toxic to most aquatic species and earthworms.
