Last updated: 22/01/2023
(Also known as: cymiazole; cimiazol; xymiazole)
Cymiazol is an acaricide. It is moderately soluble in water and volatile. It does not tend to be persistent in soil systems but may be in some water systems. It is not susceptible to hydrolysis. It is moderately toxic to mammals and may bioaccumulate. It is an eye and skin irritant. It shows a moderate level of toxicity to birds, fish and honey bees.
The following alerts are based on the data in the tables below. An absence of an alert does not imply the substance has no implications for human health, biodiversity or the environment but just that we do not have the data to form a judgement.
