Uses
The uses of Temephos are as follows:
1.Temefos or Temephos (CAS NO.3383-96-8) (trade name Abate) is an organophosphate larvicide used to treat water infested with disease-carrying fleas.
2.It is also used to control mosquito, midge, and black fly larvae.
3.In the developing world where the vector-borne disease dengue fever is endemic, Temephos (CAS NO.3383-96-8) is widely used and applied by both private and public pest control in areas of standing water where the Aedes aegypti mosquito breeds in order to reduce the population of this disease-carrying insect.
4.Temephos (CAS NO.3383-96-8) is also used in the Guinea Worm Eradication program to kill water fleas that carry guinea worm larvae.
