Raintoxil is a systemic fumigant insecticide formulated with Aluminium Phosphide for the management of insect pests affecting stored agricultural commodities.
The product label indicates applications for stored commodities in silos, bulk storage facilities, gas-proof storage areas and sealed storage enclosures. It is particularly intended for situations where conventional surface insecticide treatment may not provide adequate penetration into stored commodities.
