«Lufenuron, a chitin synthesis inhibitor, is an effective agent against lepidopteran members in crops, eriophid mites and western flower thrips. In non-crop situations too, lufenuron is effective against fleas on animals and on cockroaches in households. This chemical also acts as an anti-fungal agent in plants. ... According to the WHO, lufenuron is a Class III toxin (slightly hazardous). It is safe on mammals, since it is not broken down by the liver or kidneys.»
