evaluation of an insecticide
The following is the only reference to this word. I assume it means its resistence to rain but am not sure and don't know how to translate in one word. Can anyone help? Many thanks
"Per quanto riguarda la dilavabilità del prodotto, si debbono prendere in considerazioni le raccomandazioni comuni per tutti i prodotti antiparasiteri e cioè di non trattare in prossimità di una pioggia."

rain resistance
Hi, I think that you have the right idea about the meaning.
Here are a couple of examples for "rain resistance":
Surfactant additions also improve herbicide rain resistance.
edis.ifas.ufl.edu/FR160
Remove clothing immediately if pesticide gets inside. ... spreader that will improve rain resistance and reduce wash-off

rain resistance
Seems to have something to do with the resistance to the dilution of the granules following rain...

tendency to be washed out/solubility
Dilavabilità (E: Washing out)
Attitudine di un trattamento preservante ad essere asportato dall’azione dell’acqua, oppure a fissarsi in maniera definitiva nel legno (trattamento non dilavabile).

if you need only one word, solubility may be an option
Pesticide Properties. Four chemical properties thataffect pesticide movement are solubility, adsorption,volatility, and degradation.Solubility. The tendency of a pesticide to dissolve inwater affects its leaching potential. As water seepsdownward through soil, it carries with it water-solu-ble chemicals. This process is called leaching. Watersolubility greater than 30 milligrams per liter (or partsper million) has been identified as the “flag” for a po-tential leacher. Highly soluble pesticides have a ten-dency to be carried in surface runoff and to beleached from the soil to groundwater. Poorly solublepesticides—applied to soil but not incorporated—have a high potential for loss through runoff or erosion

You might want to say "stability under wet/rainy conditions"
