Mark A. Mossler2

The following table presents categories that were either obtained from the Environmental Protection Agency, Koppert's Side-Effects Database, UF/IFAS Pest Management Strategic Plans, or label interpretation. When different categories are listed for different life stages (e.g. highly toxic in larval stage but nontoxic as an adult), the more toxic category has been placed in the table.

The table is only available as a PDF.
