What the substance is used for, by industry and function
Formerly a soil insecticide on vegetables, corn, strawberries, mint.
/Former uses/: Thionazin is a soil insecticide and nematocide effective against a number of plant parasitic as well as free living nematodes, including those attacking buds, bulbs, leaves and roots, as well as against soil dwelling pests such as root maggots and symphylids and foliar insects such as aphids and leaf miners. When incorporated in mushroom compost at spawning it is effective against mushroom flies.
