Propoxur (Cat.No:I000536) is an insecticide and acaricide widely used in agricultural and household settings. It acts by inhibiting cholinesterase enzymes, leading to the disruption of nerve impulses in pests. Propoxur is effective against a range of insects, including mosquitoes, fleas, and cockroaches. Proper handling and use are crucial to minimize environmental and health risks.
