Abstract: The present invention provides insecticidal compositions for killing flies. The composition comprises a core material, a sugar layer comprising a supersaturated solution of sugar and a toxicant, which binds the core material and is dried on the core material.

Abstract: The present invention provides lignin-pesticide complexes, methods for making lignin-pesticide complexes, and methods for treating or controlling insect infestations on animals by administering such complexes. Advantageously, the lignin-pesticide complexes of the present invention can be used in feed-through products to control insect infestation on livestock or pets. Various insects such as face flies, house flies, stable flies, and horn flies can be controlled and treated using the feed-through products of the present invention.

Abstract: The present invention provides a solid block formulation, and methods of making and methods of use. In addition, methods of controlling insects on cattle are also provided.

Abstract: Compositions and methods are disclosed which greatly improve the shelf-life of pesticidal agents and especially insecticides. The tendency of the composition to segregate from the solid components is minimized, which improves uniformity throughout the product.

Abstract: The present invention provides a shelf-life extending pesticide formulation, and methods of making and methods of use. The present invention prolongs the shelf-life many fold. In addition, methods of controlling insects on cattle are also provided.

Abstract: Stabilized compositions of nithiazine which are suitable for long term use in an agricultural application. The compositions typically contain nithiazine, a hydroxyalkyl-tert-amine and an antioxidant. Suitable hydroxyalkyl-tert-amines include, for example, triethanolamine, 4-(2-hydroxyethyl)morpholine, N-(2-hydroxyethyl)pyrrolidine, ETHOMEEN S12.RTM., ETHOMEEN C12.RTM. and ETHOMEEN T12.RTM.. Suitable antioxidants include, for example, TENOX GT-2.RTM. (a mixture of 70% tocopherols) and alkyl gallates.

Abstract: Plaster formulations of agricultural and pest control chemicals which form slow release briquets in situ.

Abstract: Method for the preparation of an insect attractant composition which includes a trialkylamine salt, an alkali salt of a carboxylic acid and a pheromone in a suitable aqueous solution.

Abstract: A skin sanitizing composition is disclosed which is particularly suited as a teat dip or udder wash for dairy cows which comprises at least one phenyl alkanol such as benzyl or phenethyl alcohol as the microbiocidal or sanitizing ingredient in an amount effective to substantially reduce the bacteria population on a skin surface when the composition is applied thereto. An emulsifying amount of a surfactant is included to provide an aqueous dispersion of the phenyl alkanol ingredient, which enhances the germicidal activity of the microbiocidal or sanitizing ingredient. The composition may include an emollient if desired and has a typical pH of between about 4 and 7.
