Abstract
Dimilin® 1-(4-chlorophenyl)-3-(2,6-difluorobenzoyl)-urea is an insect growth regulator which disrupts the insect's molting process. It has been field tested against eastern spruce budworm, Choristoneura fumiferana, with variable results (Dimond 1975; Retnakaran et al. 1976). In addition to fluctuations in many field parameters, innate variations in susceptibility to Dimilin during different stadia may influence efficacy. Retnakaran and Smith (1976) found that larvae during the 5th and 6th stadia were most susceptible.
