The residual behavior of DDT, parathion, Phosdrin (1-meth-oxycarbonyl-l-propen-2-yl dimethyl phosphate), and TDE on oranges following treatment designed for the control of various orangeworms has been studied. It was determined that a 2-week waiting period between treatment and harvest will result in residues well below the existing tolerance levels.
