Expert opinion
Yulia Safronenko
A big fan of experiments and personal methods in gardening. The substance is often sold not as a separate pesticide, but as part of other products. Sometimes such “mixtures” are even more effective. Therefore, to find out whether fufanon is in a particular drug, it is better to familiarize yourself with its composition.
Fufanon is a colorless, odorless, oily liquid. The substance dissolves in water, but not completely, however, it dissolves well in organic high-molecular solvents (646, acetone). But most often the drug goes on sale in the form of a powder impregnated with an active pesticide (although it can be found in liquid form in ampoules or vials).
The active ingredient of fufanon is dimethyldithiophosphoric acid. Once in the body of insects, it is processed into malaoxon, which interferes with their metabolism and disrupts the functioning of the nervous system of the parasites. Subsequently, the pests die.

Action of Fufanon
Fufanon belongs to the class of organophosphorus compounds. The active component of the drug is malathion, which paralyzes pests, which within 1-2 hours lose the ability to move and eat and die within 24 hours. The drug is resistant, so it should be alternated with other insecticides.
Analogues of Fufanon to one degree or another are Karbofos, Atlant, Insecto-ESTA, Avidust and Pedilin.

When and how to properly treat plants in spring and autumn
The use of Fufanon in spring and autumn has certain differences. They should be taken into account, since if these rules are not followed, serious harm will be caused to the crops:
- Fufanon solution should be used in early spring, before flowers bloom. It is necessary to process each leaf separately, spraying it thoroughly.
If the flowering period has already begun, it is better to avoid spraying crops and trees.
- In autumn, trees and shrubs are processed after the leaves have completely fallen. And although the instructions indicate that it is allowed to spray on leaves, still, if possible, it is better to postpone it to late autumn.
The ratio of components and the application rate of the drug directly depend on the type of crop. Pros and cons of the insecticide; ease of preparation and use of the solution; affordable cost; durability of the effect; possibility of use both in the open ground and in the greenhouse; high efficiency; wide distribution. The main disadvantage of the drug is the inability to use in eating fruits immediately after processing. To do this, you should wait a certain period of time.
Compatibility and analogues of Fufanon drugs
Fufanon is compatible with most insecticides, fungicides, herbicides, growth regulators, fertilizers and adjuvants used at the same time. It is not recommended to mix Fufanon with copper-containing compounds, alkaline calcium compounds, sulfur-containing preparations and sulfide-based mineral fertilizers, oils and other preparations that have an alkaline reaction.
Before use, it is advisable to test for compatibility.
In tank mixtures it is often used with pyrethroid class insecticides.
Analogs - drugs based on malathion (alone or when used together with other active ingredients). For example, drugs - “Aliot”, “Alatar”, “Antiklesch”, “Benchuk”, “Duplet”, “Karbotsin”, “Karbofos”, “Medilis-malathion”, “Profilaktin”, “Foscon-55”, “Tsipromal” " and etc.
"Fufanon, KE" is not registered for use on private farms after 01/01/2014. As a replacement, we recommend using its complete analogue - the drug "Aliot". Read more about the drug "Aliot".
Principles of use
To use Fufanon in agriculture, a number of rules must be followed:
- Spray crops at the first sign of parasites.
- On hot days, carry out the procedure either early in the morning or in the evening.
- Have time to carry out the treatment two hours before precipitation.
- It is good to moisten the plant for greater effectiveness of the product.
Frequent use of the chemical on the same crops causes parasites to become accustomed to it. Therefore, it is necessary to alternate the insecticide with other products. But before use, you need to check their compatibility.
To determine whether the chemicals are compatible, it is worth conducting a test. To do this, mix a small amount of each product in water. If flakes or suspensions form, then they are incompatible.
It is not recommended to use Fufanon with the following drugs:
- those that contain copper;
- alkalis containing calcium in the structure;
- products with sulfur;
- mineral fertilizers with sulfides;
- products with an alkaline reaction.
Reviews
Natalya: I was once again convinced that the instructions are not written in vain. I decided to make a stronger solvent and burned the leaves of indoor plants. Don't repeat my mistakes.
Andrey: on the advice of a friend, about three years ago I started treating my fruit trees with Fufanon with Epin Extra in early spring, and since then I have had no problems with pests. Still, prevention is very important!
Dmitry: I grow roses for sale. The task is labor-intensive, primarily due to pests. I worked with different drugs, but it was Fufanon that really helped, which I sprayed the roses with twice in the spring. From then until the end of the season, I did not find a single parasite on the flowers.
Lily: treated indoor flowers with Fufanon against midges and other pests. Action is like action, other drugs helped me, but I liked Fufanon because it does not have an unpleasant odor, from which the apartment needs to be ventilated for hours.
Natalia Petrovna: the drug is inexpensive, but effective. I spray it in the garden, in the vegetable garden, and on indoor flowers before returning them to the house after the summer holidays. An indispensable assistant.

Fans and people who have used the drug
Here are some reviews from various forums about the results of using the product.

“My wife and I have a small country house outside the city. Naturally, like other gardeners, we face the problem of pests. We use fufanon. It is cheap and works effectively. I mainly use this poison to fight aphids, but it also helps a lot against the ants that terrorize my garden. I pour the solution directly into their burrows.” Gennady, 64 years old
“We always take fufanon to fight caterpillars on cabbage. For some reason we always have a lot of them. If we had bought other drugs, we would have gone broke long ago. And this one is cheap - about 50 rubles.” Marina, 40 years old
“I live in a small village in an apartment building. There is a neighbor who lives above me and is fond of alcohol. About a year ago, she brought bedbugs to her from somewhere. They crawled towards me through the ventilation. I began to find out what can be used to poison them, and learned about fufanon. I treated the apartment in accordance with the instructions, and the parasites left. It helped. And inexpensive, most importantly.” Nikolay, 28 years old
Fufanon is a cheap and effective drug that will help defeat not only pests in the garden, but also domestic parasitic insects (cockroaches, bedbugs, lice). The result of using this pesticide is visible within 1 - 2 days after treatment, and it remains effective for 3 - 4 weeks. However, when using the product, you should be aware of its toxicity and take precautions.
