The primary active compound tasmanone, is a member of the beta-triketone class of compounds that occur in a numbe...
Flavocide® is based on a beta-triketone molecule, flavesone, that is produced by synthetic chemical means. Flavesone exists in nature in a number of plant species but at low abundance. Initial testing suggests a unique mode of action with potential in addressing the increasing problem of resistance ...
Field studies of two area repellent aerosol formulations with transfluthrin and permethrin active ingredients were carried out against mixed freshwater mosquitoes near Humpty Doo, Northern Territory and against flies (a mixed population of house flies, Musca domestica and bush flies Musca vetustissi...
Pyriproxyfen is an insect growth regulator, a juvenile hormone analogue, widely used for the control of container and freshwater mosquito species throughout the world and is potent at very low levels. To date its use in natural brackish environments has been limited. In Australia the dominant nuisan...
Field studies on a personal insect repellent formulation based on essential oils from Australian native plants were carried out against mosquitoes and Biting midges in Cairns, Far North Queensland, Australia and against Bush flies, Musca vetustissima in Quinalow, South West Queensland, Australia.

European Wasp, Vespula germanica (F.), was first noted in Tasmania in 1959, and in Victoria in 1977. It is now widespread over the cooler and wetter areas of the southern part of Australia. The Australian winters are mild, and whole nests can overwinter leading to high wasp populations in some place...
Field studies were conducted to compare the performance of a new formulation of Goliath® cockroach gel (0.3g/kg fipronil) to a range of other commercial cockroach gels. These were carried out in Sydney, NSW, Australia, against German cockroach, Blattella germanica (L), and in Cairns, Queensland, Aus...
The use of baits for the control of cockroaches in homes is now commonplace. To date, most bait studies have focused on the German cockroach, Blattella germanica (L). However, in many parts of the world, especially the tropics, the American cockroach,Periplaneta americana(L), is a more common pest. ...
IR3535 (Ethyl Butylacetylaminopropionate) is a repellent compound that has been shown to have activity against a range of biting and nuisance insects. In this study the efficacy of three Reckitt Benckiser Aerogard® formulations containing IR3535 were assessed. The formulations were: (1) Aerosol (20%...
Imidacloprid belongs to a new group of insecticides, the chlorinated nicotine derivatives. It has been shown to have activity against a range of pests including termites, aphids, fleas, beetles and thrips. A gel formulation has been developed for use against cockroaches and this study examined the e...
Field studies were conducted to compare the performance of Goliath® Cockroach Gel (fipronil) and a spray treatment of Cislin Residual Insecticide® (deltamethrin). These were carried out in Sydney, NSW, Australia against Blattella germanica (L), and Townsville, Queensland, against a mixed population ...
The Chitin Synthesis Inhibitor, triflumuron, has great potential for the control of German cockroach, Blattella germanica (L). Field trails were carried out to evaluate its efficacy in combination with a short residual, conventional, insecticide DDVP, and when used alone. The insecticides were appli...
