Azamethiphos, an organothiophosphate insecticide, initially was used in 1991 for the treatment against sea lice. However, because of reduced sensitivity in 1999, the use of this compound was terminated. Azamethiphos was re-introduced in 2008; it’s the main component of Salmosan, a pesticide presently used for treatment against sea lice. Salmosan is applied as a bath treatment and then released into the surrounding seawater
