It has strong contact effects and some stomach toxicity against pests, especially mites. Once inside the pest, it can be oxidized to a more toxic form, ometh oate

Its main targets include cotton leafhoppers, cotton aphids, cotton red spiders, rice planthoppers, rice thrips, rice stem borers, wheat leaf miners, cucumber beetles, vegetable aphids, peach fruit borers, apple fruit borers, pear psyllids, hawthorn spider mites, citrus spider mites, citrus rust mites, citrus scale insects, sweet potato weevils, sweet potato leaf miners, sorghum aphids, tobacco aphids, tobacco cutworms, and mole crickets.

Additionally, Lethal can be applied as a residual spray on farm building walls to control house flies. Its insecticidal action is relatively slow, but its residual effect can last up to 8 weeks. The pure product can also be used for surface spraying, intramuscular injection, or oral administration to control dipteran parasites in livestock.

However, it may cause phytotoxicity in certain varieties of crops such as walnuts, pines, peaches, jujubes, apricots, plums, citrus fruits, lemons, hops, tomatoes, cotton, sorghum, green beans, and tobacco. Using it on certain apple varieties and flowers may result in rust spots.
