Abstract
This invention relates to phosphoroamidothioate and phosphorcamidodithioate compounds, to compositions thereof which are useful as pesticides. For example, as arthropodicides (that is, insecticides and acaricides), nematocides, and fungicides, and to a method of controlling pests, such as insects, acarids, nematodes, and fungi. The compounds of the invention are effective against soil insects, especially the corn rootworm, when applied by soil application techniques and are also effective when applied to agricultural plants and other plants by foliar application techniques.
