“…This has also been shown for many other pyrethroids tested on other insects (Williams et al 1983, Jain and Yadav 1989, Nayak et al 2002, Campos and Phillips 2010. For example, cypermethrin and permethrin were found to have long-term toxic effects for up to 33 wk against T. castaneum on plywood (Watters et al 1983).…”

Contact Toxicity and Residual Effects of Selected Insecticides Against the Adult Paederus fuscipes (Coleoptera: Staphylinidae)

et al. 2013

The contact toxicity of four insecticide formulations (deltamethrin, fipronil, fenitrothion, and imidacloprid) applied on three different substrates (tile, plywood, and concrete) against the adult rove beetle, Paederus fuscipes Curtis, was evaluated. The relative order of speed of killing effects was as follows: deltamethrin > imidacloprid > fipronil > fenitrothion. Although deltamethrin showed the fastest action against P. fuscipes, the recovery rate of rove beetles at 48 h posttreatment was moderate (approximately 25%) on the tile surface to high (approximately 80%) on the plywood surface. Thus, it is likely that the insects did not pick up the lethal dose especially on porous surfaces. In contrast, fipronil demonstrated delayed toxicity that might promote maximal uptake by the insects. More than 80% mortality was registered for tile and plywood surfaces up to 4 wk after exposure. High mortality (almost 100%) was recorded for imidacloprid-exposed P. fuscipes at 48 h posttreatment, but only on the tile surface. Among the four insecticides tested, fenitrothion was the least effective against P. fuscipes because low percentage to no mortality was recorded in the fenitrothion treatment.

“…EfÞcacy of the acetamiprid ϩ bifenthrin mixture on plywood coated with latex paint was low in both the short-term and multiple residual experiments. Latex paint has been found to reduce the efÞcacy of some materials (Burkholder andDicke 1966, Campos andPhillips 2010), and differential efÞcacy on surfaces has often been inßuenced by the insecticide formulation (Burkholder and Dicke 1966, Kaufman and Rutz 2001, Arthur 2008. The high efÞcacy of acetamiprid ϩ bifenthrin on other surfaces and the high efÞcacy of bifenthrin alone on painted wood suggest that the reduced efÞcacy of acetamiprid ϩ bifenthrin on painted wood is as a result of the formulation rather than the active ingredients.…”

Residual Efficacy of Insecticides Applied to Exterior Building Material Surfaces for Control of Nuisance Infestations of Megacopta cribraria (Hemiptera: Plataspidae)

et al. 2013

The plataspid Megacopta cribraria (F.), which was recently introduced to the United States, forms nuisance aggregations on the exteriors of homes when it seeks overwintering sites in the fall. Little to no published information is available on the efficacy of insecticides labeled for professional use and exterior applications on homes and other structures against this insect. In a series of three experiments, we evaluated the residual efficacy of nine insecticides incorporating pyrethroid, neonicotinoid, and oxadiazine active ingredients on surfaces composed of five exterior building materials (vinyl soffit, brick, painted and unfinished plywood, and metal) at rates labeled for use in structural perimeter applications. Pyrethroids and pyrethroid-neonicotinoid mixes were broadly effective, resulting in 100% mortality or knockdown within 24 h in most cases. The neonicotinoid dinotefuran performed similarly on metal and vinyl surfaces, but its residual efficacy was reduced on more porous brick and wood surfaces. The oxadiazine indoxacarb acted more slowly than the other materials, but its performance was maintained on porous surfaces. Overwintering adults of M. cribraria were generally susceptible to the broad-spectrum insecticides most commonly used for exterior applications to homes and other structures.

“…The attract-and-kill technique kills mobile insects by using pheromone to lure them to the insecticide surfaces. Movement on insecticide-treated surfaces in 2 s can suppress P. interpunctella males over 80% for up to 8 weeks [143]. Under hermetic storage conditions, the non-mobile developmental stages generally took more exposure time to reach a 100% mortality than the mobile stages because of their lower O 2 consumption and metabolic rate [144].…”

Influences of Stored Product Insect Movements on Integrated Pest Management Decisions

Insect movement inside and outside grain bulks and processed products influences pest management decisions. Movement allows insects to find essential food resources, shelters (refuges), warmer and/or humid locations, mating and egg-laying sites, even when they are rare in fields, buildings, mills, warehouses, and inside grain masses. This review discussed the advantages and disadvantages of stored product insect movements, and the influence of insect mobility on some integrated pest management practices. Insect movement (1) results in clumped insect spatial distributions and thus makes large sample sizes necessary for monitoring; (2) makes trapping more efficient, but is influenced by many factors; (3) allows control methods to be effective, but requires pest management programs to be area-wide; (4) makes eradication of quarantine pests difficult and commodities are quickly re-infested; and (5) results in a diverse genetic pool and speeds the development of resistance to pesticides. Any element of an IPM approach should use the knowledge of insect movement. Reasons for the difficult interpretation of cryptic movement behaviours of insects were provided and future research areas were suggested.

Contact toxicity of insecticides for attract‐and‐kill applications against adult Plodia interpunctella (Hübner) (Lepidoptera: Pyralidae)

Abstract: Effective attract-and-kill surfaces can be developed for killing IMM males and thereby potentially lead to reduced reproduction and, ultimately, population suppression.
