Combinations of bait and spray were tested against susceptible and field-collected German cockroaches, Blattella germanica. In exposure tests, residual deposits of all sprays were lethal to a susceptible strain, but pyrethrin and certain pyrethroid sprays were repellent in choice boxes. Indoxacarb b...

Four essential oil-based products and a liquid-based borate spray were tested for their efficacy against adult, pyrethroid-resistant, field-strain and Harold Harlan susceptible-strain bed bugs using direct spray applications. The most effective product was Green Bug (100% mortality in one hour or le...

With respect to the technical, executive and ecological problems involved in residual spraying and along with changes occurred in Roll Back Malaria (RBM) Plan in malaria control, in present time, the strategy of using pyrethroid impregnated bed-nets has attracted the attention of the experts of WHO ...

SumiOne® (common name metofluthrin, 2,3,5,6-tetrafluoro-4-methoxymethylbenzyl (E,Z) (1R,3R)-2,2dimethyl-3-(prop-1-enyl) cyclopropane carboxylate) is a novel vapor active pyrethroid that is effective against mosquitoes. Impregnated paper substrates have been shown to be effective at dispensing metofl...

Barrier applications of sprays and granules have been widely used to control Argentine ants, Linepithema humile (Mayr), around structures. Their activity against ants, especially the pyrethroids, has been ascribed to toxicity and repellency. Recent studies have shown that bifenthrin and cyfluthrin p...

Experimental gel and powder bait formulations containing 0.25, 0.5, and 1.0% Indoxacarb were evaluated in a series of laboratory and field studies against the German cockroach,Blattella germanica (L.). Mortality was first determined in 18 by 31 by 10 cm plastic boxes with loosely fitting covers. Twe...

Termiticidal activity of deltamethrin as a technical and/or formulated material has been well documented around the world by governmental and university researchers in laboratory and long-term field evaluations. United States Department of Agriculture- Forest Service (USDA-FS) ”Gulfport” field testi...
