The California Department of Food and Agriculture, Environmental Hazards Assessment Program, monitored three aerial applications of malathion during the Mexican Fruit Fly Eradication Program in El Cajon, San Diego County. Mass deposition, droplet size distribution of malathion, and concentration of malathion and malaoxon in water and air were measured. Results were compared to 1990 Mediterranean Fruit Fly monitoring results.
