Biocides

Become a Premium Member today!

Wine offers for "Biocides" in find+buy

Term (bios = life, caedere = kill) for active substances, chemicals and microorganisms used in non-agricultural pest control against harmful organisms (such as rats, insects, fungi, microbes), e.g. disinfectants, rat poisons or wood preservatives. In contrast, products used in the cultivation of plants, including in viticulture, are not referred to as biocides (although this often occurs), but as plant protection products. Biocides are also called "non-agricultural pesticides". See also under pesticides and vine enemies.
