It is used primarily as an insecticide in the form of baits for cockroaches and ants. Some brands of insecticides that include hydramethylnon are Amdro, Combat, Blatex, Cyaforce, Cyclon, Faslane, Impact, Matox, Maxforce, Pyramdron, Siege, and Wipeout.

Toxicology

Oral, rat: LD₅₀ is 1100–1300 mg/kg.

Oral, dog: LD₅₀ is above 28000 mg/kg.

Hydramethylnon is especially toxic to fish
*96-hour LC₅₀ in rainbow trout is 0.16 mg/l, 0.10 mg/l in channel catfish, and 1.70 mg/l in bluegill sunfish.
