Description and Uses
Chlordane is a viscous, amber-coloured liquid. Technical-grade chlordane is a mixture of many structurally related compounds including trans-chlordane, cis-chlordane, chlordene, heptachlor, and trans-nonachlor. Chlordane was used as a broad-spectrum pesticide in the United States from 1948 to 1988. The uses included termite control in homes and pest control on agricultural crops such as maize and citrus, on home lawns, gardens, turf, and ornamental plants. Chlordane is a persistent organochlorine insecticide. It kills insects when ingested and on contact. Formulations include dusts, emulsifiable concentrates, granules, oil solutions, and wettable powder.
Chlordane is a persistent non-systemic contact and ingested insecticide with some fumigant action. It is used as a wood preservative, protective treatment for underground cables, and to reduce earthworm populations in lawns. It is used against Formicidae, Coleoptera, Noctuidae larva, Saltatoria, subterranean termites, and many other insect pests. It controls household insects, pests of man and domestic animals.
