Objectionable odors from agrichemicals can be masked by adding one or more
terpene or their oxygenated derivatives to the formulation before,
during, or after application. A particularly preferred formulation is a
granulated insecticide that includes an insecticidal amount of a
phosphoroamido(di)thioate in solid form, a polymeric binder, a small
amount of an anticking aid, and a masking agent containing an essential
oil that is either mixed throughout the granule or sprayed onto its
surface. The essential oil masks objectionable odors from the active
ingredient without adversely affecting the storage stability or efficacy
of the active ingredient.
