Abstract: A substrate designed to be used as animal litter, for controlling insects, preferably flies, in which the substrate includes an absorbent substrate impregnated with at least one insect growth regulator (IGR) in a preferred determined concentration, and where the substrate is preferably impregnated with a formulation including, in addition to the growth regulator, a film-forming substance, a water insoluble particulate mineral material, an organic solvent, one or more additives and water. A method for obtaining the substrate impregnated with the formulation is also disclosed, as well as using the substrate as animal litter for controlling insects. Use of the waste resulting from the mix of the substrate with manure, after it has been used as animal litter, as organic compost for agricultural soils by subjecting it to a process of stabilization and degradation by means of biosolarisation is also disclosed.

Abstract: The present invention relates to insecticide and acaricide paints that inhibit chitin synthesis, regulate insect juvenile hormone and repel arthropods, for controlling endemic diseases, pests and allergens. The paints comprise at least the following compounds (in any combination): 1%-100% water, 0.0001%-20% insecticides, 0.0001%-20% chitin inhibitor, 0.0001%-20% juvenile hormone regulator, 1%-50% polymers, 0%-40% pigments, 0%-60% fillers, 0%-60% natural repellents, and 0.01%-20% stabilizers. The composition of the paints allows the active ingredients to be encapsulated in an aqueous polymer with or without the incorporation of fillers and pigments, and therefore the range of use thereof is increased.

Abstract: A paint composition for controlling pests and allergens through inhibiting chitin synthesis, includes a mixture of 10 to 40% by weight of water, 5 to 50% by weight of resin, 0.001 to 40% by weight of a chitin inhibitor, 0.001 to 5% by weight of an organophosphate, 1 to 40% by weight of pigment, 1 to 60% by weight of a carrier material, and 1 to 20% by weight of a stabilizer, wherein the weight percentages are based on the total weight of the mixture.
