Temephos is an organic substance, which is a white crystalline solid and highly toxic. It is an organophosphorus larvicide. It is used to treat the waters full of disease transmitting insects, including mosquitoes, midges and black fly larvae. It affects the central nervous system by inhibiting cholinesterase, resulting in the death of larvae before reaching the age stage. Temephos is prepared by the reaction of dimethoxythiophosphoryl chloride with bis (p-hydroxyphenyl) sulfide. Temephos is mainly used to control sanitary pests such as larvae, Simulium, midges, body lice and fleas. It is also effective for agricultural pests such as rice stem borer, slime worm, leaf cicada and cotton bollworm. Preparations include emulsifiable concentrate, granules and powders. Temephos has low toxicity, broad-spectrum insecticidal effect, and its mode of action is mainly contact killing, without endoabsorption. Temephos is harmful to the environment, so special attention should be paid to the pollution of water body. Temephos can be used in public health to control larvae, chironomid, moths and midges; It can also prevent lice on human body and jumping lice on dogs and cats; It can also be used to control land tigers, thrips on citrus and bugs on pasture.
