Profile

  • Methomyl was first marketed in 1968
  • Active by both contact and ingestion, translocated acropetally in the xylem leads to longer lasting protection by controlling most of the stages of the pest.
  • Methomyl’s neurotoxic action inhibits acetylcholinesterase by covalently binding to the enzyme at the acetylcholine site, blocking acetylcholine hydrolysis, which causes hyperexcitation, paralysis, and ultimately death in insects.
  • Minimum withholding period that ensures minimal disruption to harvesting schedules.
  • No appreciable bioaccumulation is expected.

Toxicity

  • Non phytotoxic when used as recommended, except to some varieties of apples.
  • Acute oral Mammalian Toxicity (LD50, mg/kg) rats: 17-32 mg/Kg (69-128mg/kg as 25% w/w)
