Soil. Though no products were identified, the reported half-life in soil is several days to a few weeks (Hartley and Kidd, 1987). When soil containing bendiocarb was incubated for 4 weeks, the amount remaining was 30.4 7.2% of the applied amount. After one application, the amount of bendiocarb recovered was only 0.9-1.3% (Racke and Coates, 1988). Biodegradation of bendiocarb in soil was enhanced if the soil was pretreated with carbofuran or trimethacarb (Dzantor and Felsot, 1989).
