Abstract

<p>The effects of a new insecticide, piliprolol FL (phenylpyrazole), and a slow‒acting insecticide, fipronil FL(phenylpyrazole), on the black house ant, Ochetellus glaber, were examined by using the filter paper contact method. The insecticidal effect of the former was higher or as high as that of the latter. Similarly, fast‒acting insecticides including two organophosphorous compounds, fenitrothion FL and propetamphos AE, three pyrethroids, β‒cyfluthrin FL, bifenthrin AE and etofenprox AE, and a neonicotinoid, thiamethoxam FL, were tested. Propetamphos AE showed the highest potency, followed by fenitrothion FL and bifenthrin AE. Aerosol (bifenthrin 0.07%) knocked down the test ants 100% in 10 minutes after direct spraying, confirming that it was a fast-acting, potent agent against ants.</p>
