[4] In a study, the level of pesticide contamination in soil and water of an agriculturally intensive area in Nepal was investigated.

Endosulfan, Iprobefos, monocrotophos, mevinphos, and butamifos were detected in water samples, while cypermethrin, dichlorvos, and cyfluthrin were detected in soil samples.

It also acts as an acetylcholinesterase inhibitor, making it moderately toxic to mammals.

[4][6] A crop protection product containing the active ingredient butamifos is marketed under the trade name Cremart.

[3] No plant protection products containing butamifos are registered in the European Union or Switzerland.
