Abstract
Persistence and harvest residue studies on apples have been undertaken using the codling moth insecticides lead arsenate, DDT, 1‐naphthyl N‐methylcarbamate (arylam; Sevin) and the OO‐dimethyl and the OO‐diethyl S‐(3,4‐dihydro‐4‐oxobenz‐1,2,3‐triazin‐3‐ylmethyl) phosphorothiolothionates [azinphos‐methyl and ‐ethyl (Gusathion and Gusathion A), respectively]. After application of these insecticides at commercially used times and rates, harvest residues do not constitute a consumer hazard, except upon occasion with lead arsenate.
