What is Carbofuran?
Description
Carbofuran is another systemic insecticidal/nematicidal carbamate available in granular and liquid formulations. Because use of carbofuran granules was associated with bird kills, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) prohibited the use of carbofuran granules in 1994.
Description

Europe has banned carbofuran’s use because it is extremely toxic to humans and wildlife. In July, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency announced that it intends to seek a ban on all uses of carbofuran in the United States.
