methiocarb AMVAC Chemical Corporation is deleting CITRUS and
(Mesurol) AVOCADOS from their registration of methiocarb
(Metaldehyde-Methiocarb Granules 2-1). The basic
producer of this insecticide-miticide-mollusicide-
repellent, Miles Inc., has decided to drop all food
uses of methiocarb due to the cost of reregistration.
This action will be final on 5/25/93. Existing
stocks in the hands of retailers or users may be sold
and used as labeled until exhausted.
