This chart groups insecticides by their modes of action to assist you in selecting insecticides 1) to maintain greater diversity in insecticide use and 2) to rotate among effective insecticides with different modes of action to delay the development of insecticide resistance.
Methomyl is an oxime carbamate insecticide. It is highly soluble in water but has a low volatility and would not normally be expected to leach to groundwater. It is not normally persistent in soil or water systems.
2 A compound with an unknown or controversial mode of action or an unknown mode of toxicity will be held in Group UN until evidence becomes available to enable that compound to be assigned to a more appropriate mode of action group.
Methomyl is classed as being highly toxic to humans via oral exposures, moderately toxic via inhalation, and slightly toxic via dermal exposure. At relatively high doses, it can be fatal to humans.
The acute toxic action of methomyl is characterized by signs of poisoning typical of anticholinesterase action, i.e. lacrimation, profuse salivation, tremor and pupil constriction. Surviving animals quickly show signs of recovery, often within hours.
