Uses
It is used as a pesticide. Insecticide; acaricide. Nonsystemic insecticide and acaricide used on apples. Ethion is used to control mites and sucking insects, larval Lepidoptera
and soil pests in a wide range of crops and in turf. An additional use
is as an ectoparasiticide to control cattle ticks.
