Biocidal products are necessary for the control of harmful urban pests to human or animal health and for the control of those that cause damage to natural or manufactured materials. Urban pests are mainly controlled by biocides from Product-type (PT) 8 (wood preservatives), PT14 (rodenticides), PT18...

Malaria is a global health challenge. Vector control remains the fundamental, central and critical component of prevention and control of malaria. Insecticides remain the mainstay in vector control for malaria prevention. Pyrethroids are currently the insecticides for adult vector control interventi...
In this study, we examined the resistance status of six field-collected strains from Singapore to eight insecticides, as well as the resistance of the parental through F5 generations after they were selected with indoxacarb bait. All strains showed no resistance to acetamiprid (0.7–1.9x), imidaclopr...
The house fly, Musca domestica L., is one of the most common synanthropic insects in the world. It is known as mechanical carrier of various organisms that cause diseases of man. In many countries, house fly populations can quickly develop resistance to insecticides using to control them. At present...
A fipronil SC formulation was evaluated against a multi-resistant population of Blattella germanica. The test site was an eight-story apartment building, with 150 individual apartments in Neratovice, Central Bohemia, Czech Republic. Conditions in the apartments included general disorder and an abund...
The German cockroach is the most common cockroach found indoors, such as hospitals, homes, restaurants, etc. In hospitals, because of the presence of adequate food and living environment, they can develop into large population and live throughout the buildings. They can contaminate food with differe...
The utility of fipronil and perhaps other phenylpyrazoles for German cockroach, Blattella germanica, control may be affected by resistance to cyclodienes in field populations, because of cross resistance between these two classes of insecticides. Field populations of B. germanica were sampled for th...
In 1996-97 response reactions of urban populations of houseflies (Musca domestica L.) collected in Moscow and Moscow were studied against long-term influence of industrial pollutants and insecticide press. Reaction on the industrial influence evaluated for fecundity and on the insecticide press for ...
Infestation with head lice, Pediculosis capitis, is a widespread, persistent and recurring problem amongst pre-school and school aged children. The problem poses no direct threat to health which may explain why such a physiologically distressing condition affecting millions of young children every y...
The housefly Musca domestica L. belongs to the most important hygiene pests world-wide - especially in livestock. Due to its fast development and high reproductive rate the housefly has developed severe resistance against commonly used insecticides. Sometimes resistance problems against new active i...
A new type of bait has been developed, aimed at control of pest insects, and tested successfully on the model insect Blattella germanica (L.) - the German cockroach. The active ingredient, termed a nutritional metabolism disrupter (NMD), is a non-toxic composition of the compounds oxypurinol and xan...
