From 2014 to 2016, in Moscow, Kaluga region, and Ural (Ekaterinburg) we have been monitored the susceptibility of male German cockroaches to topically applying 1μl insecticides of different structure. It was found that all cockroach populations are most resistant to pyrethroid insecticides, especial...

One of the global problems of today is the insecticide resistance of the human louse Pediculus humanus L. to pyrethroids. The continuous application of pyrethroids (mostly, permethrin) resulted in the formation of local lice populations resistant to this group of insecticides. In the 2013-2015 body ...

The majority of body lice colonies examined in Moscow were permethrin resistant and susceptible to organophosphorus (fenthion, malathion) and neonicotinoid insecticides. Metabolic resistance of body lice to permethrin was investigated using synergists piperonyl butoxide (PBO), S,S,S-tributylphosphor...

Imidacloprid, acetamiprid, thiamethoxam and thiacloprid have the same mode of action. They are agonists the nicotinic acethylcholine receptor, affecting the synapses in the insect central nervous system. These insecticides are gaining widespread use for controlling urban insect pests in Russia. Four...

Two aerosol insecticide compositions were investigated in laboratory conditions against a complex of synanthropic insects. Both compositions have high acute insecticidal activity and have a long residual effect on glass, but not on plywood. It is shown that the knockdown effect was reversible on ply...
