ECHA seeks info on alternatives to hexaflumuron termiticide

摘要

The European Chemicals Agency (ECHA) is seeking information on possible chemical and non-chemical alternatives to the termiticide, hexaflumuron. The consultation is open until October 15th and is part of the Agency’s reassessment for renewal of the active ingredient’s biocide approval. Hexaflumuron meets hazard criteria for being designated as a candidate for substitution with safer alternatives. The ECHA is seeking information before it finalises its opinion on renewal.
