What do Top U.S. Universities Think of Endosulfan?

1. Endosulfan is effective against a wide range of pests.

2. It works by contact. This implies utility when one needs to manage a sudden outbreak quickly.

3. Endosulfan can be used to preserve wood apart from its farm applications.

4. Endosulfan can be combined with other pesticides, can be formulated in many different ways, and has two distinct isomers: there are plenty of new development projects that can be productively run around such versatility.

5. Endosulfan has relatively low inhalation toxicity, and is less damaging than other pesticides for the skin and eyes. These are useful properties in the management of spray drift.

Here is the link from which this exemplary profile has been drawn:
