Fenitrothion is a man-made organophosphate compound known for its acetylcholinesterase inhibiting properties and ability to disrupt endocrine functions. It serves as a pesticide, functioning as a selective acaricide and insecticide, effectively targeting chewing and sucking insects in various agricultural settings such as rice fields, orchards, vegetable crops, cereals, cotton fields, and forests. Additionally, it proves effective against flies, mosquitoes, and cockroaches.
