Chemical compound
Pirimicarb is a selective
carbamate
insecticide used to control
aphids on vegetable, cereal and orchard crops by inhibiting
acetylcholinesterase activity
[1] but does not affect useful predators such as ladybirds that eat them.
[2] It was originally developed by
Imperial Chemical Industries Ltd., now
Syngenta, at their
Jealott's Hill site and first marketed in 1969, four years after its discovery.
