Description

Chlorfluazuron is a highly effective benzoylphenyl urea insect growth regulator (IGR) that disrupts chitin synthesis in target pests. This mode of action makes it a critical tool for managing resistant insect populations in modern integrated pest management (IPM) programs. It is primarily utilized by the agricultural, horticultural, and professional pest control industries to protect a wide range of crops and manage public health pests.

Application

• Agricultural Insect Control: Used against lepidopteran pests (e.g., diamondback moth, armyworms) and coleopteran pests in crops like cotton, vegetables, fruits, and soybeans.
• Horticultural Protection: Applied in greenhouses and ornamental plant production to control leafminers, caterpillars, and other foliage-feeding insects.
• Public Health Pest Management: Effective in formulations for controlling mosquito larvae and other dipteran pests in vector control programs.
• Professional Pest Control: Incorporated into termite and cockroach bait systems and other professional formulations for structural pest management.
• Forestry and Turf: Used to protect forests, timber, and turfgrass from defoliating insects and other damaging pests.
• Seed Treatment: Applied as a seed coating to provide systemic protection against soil-dwelling and early-season insect pests.
