What type of pesticide consists of finely ground pesticides combined with a liquid solvent and emulsifiers?

Flowables are a type of pesticide formulation that consist of finely ground active ingredients suspended in a liquid solvent, with the addition of emulsifiers to aid in the dispersion of the active compound. This formulation allows for easy mixing and application, making it convenient for pest control use. The emulsifiers prevent the pesticide from settling and help maintain a uniform distribution of the active ingredient when shaken or agitated prior to use.

In comparison, wettable powders are solids that require suspension in water to deliver the active ingredient; they do not consist of a liquid solvent in the same way flowables do. Suspension solutions also consist of solid particles in a liquid but are not classified under the same criteria as flowables; they usually contain a vehicle that can keep the solid in suspension without agitation. Granular formulations consist of solid particles that are often larger than flowables and do not involve a liquid component in the same manner as flowables, making them distinct from the type of pesticide in question.
