Abstract: A composition effective for the control of insects is disclosed, wherein the composition contains a phenyl pyrazole compound, a halopyridyl compound, or an avermectin compound, or combinations thereof, and a plant-derived oil carrier. Also disclosed is a method of applying the composition to an area where the insects are to be controlled. The composition may be applied to discrete locations within the area, or applied to a substrate with the substrate then being placed within the area.
Abstract: This invention relates to the discovered that in many strains of the German cockroach ?Blattella germanica (L.)!, feeding is inhibited by high glucose levels, conversely, feeding of this strain of cockroach is stimulated by high or ultra high levels of fructose; therefore, preferred bait compositions of the instant invention relate to insecticide bait compositions for insect control which contain a ratio of fructose to glucose of no less that about 9:1 and as great as about 10:0, binder and a preferred pyrimidinono hydrazone.
