In Europe there are up to 7 different species of underground termites. In France, Portugal and Spain there are 3 important species: Reticulitermes grassei, Reticulitermes Lucifugus and Reticulitermes flavipes). Presence of R. grassei in Spain, Portugal and France, R. lucifugus in France and Spain an...
Aquatain AMF is a ready-to-use silicone-based liquid (polydimethylsiloxane – PDMS), easy to apply on the surface of standing and stagnant water. It prevents the development of mosquitos by forming an ultra-fine film over the water’s surface. This chemical is not considered a biocide under UE laws, a...
In 2003 the invasive Asian tiger mosquito, Aedes albopictus arrived in Southern Switzerland for the first time. It has since then been continuously surveyed and controlled using ovitraps for monitoring alongside targeted applications of larvicides (Bti and diflubenzuron) and larval source reduction....
Effective mosquito management in urban and periurban environments is reliant in large part on larvicide applications to artificial and/or natural breeding areas. However, larvicide application is often too costly to implement in mosquito abatement programs in areas with high extensions of breeding s...
The results about the analysis and characterization of several different anomalies induced on Culex pipiens L. (Diptera, Culicidae) by 2 commercial formulations widely used in the mosquitoes larvae control in Spain, Dimilin 25® and Sumilarv 10EC®, are presented. Tests and effect evaluation have been...
An efficiency of diflubenzuron, cyromazin, pyriproxypfen and methopren on the house fly populations were verified on the abundance of flies over 10 weeks in a pig delivery rooms and a calf houses. The larvicidal effectiveness of diflubenzuron was in range of 35-96 %. Cyromazin caused marked reductio...
In the context of an integrated control strategy for house fly, Musca domestica, development within an urban solid waste treatment plant, tests were conducted to evaluate the sterilisation of M. domestica adultsby feeding them with Insect growth regulator (IGR) products commonly used for larvae cont...
The resistance of the house fly to insecticides is a limiting factor for its control even in Slovakia, where more than 70% of flies are highly resistant to synthetic pyrethroids (permethrin, cypermethrin, deltamethrin, and lambdacyhalothrin), 66% of fly populations are highly resistant to bendiocarb...
Pyriproxyfen, a synthetic analogue of the juvenile hormone of insects, has been used in the form of 0.5% granules (Sumilarv, Sumitomo, Japan) against preimaginal stages of house flies and mosquitoes for suppressing their quality. As the main condition of the experiment was to use strictly equalized ...
Large modem poultry houses in Japan often experience serious fly problems. The house fly, Musca domestica and the lesser house fly, Fannia canicularis are common in poultry houses from spring through fall. The house fly can be controlled effectively using chitin inhibitors but a resistance problem h...
