Its use was so disastrous that it is now prohibited in the western world, but only after many millions of kilograms had been produced.〔Robert L. Metcalf "Insect Control" in ''Ullmann's Encyclopedia of Industrial Chemistry'' Wiley-VCH, Wienheim, 2002. 〕 Kepone is a known persistent organic pollutants (POP), classified among the "dirty dozen" and banned globally by the Stockholm Convention on Persistent Organic Pollutants as of 2011. == Toxicology == The LC50 (LC = lethal concentration) is 0.022–0.095 mg/kg for blue gill and trout.
