ActivityInsecticide.
Chlorethoxyfos is a very low-rate insecticide for application to soil. It controls soil-borne coleopteran and lepidopteran pests. The product can be applied in-furrow or as a T-band. It has vapour activity and does not require soil moisture for effect.
Chlorethoxyfos is suitable for use in no-till agriculture and can be used with herbicides such as nicosulfuron. -
