Definitions
- the present invention relates to compositions and methods related to controlling pests.
- hydrophobic pesticidal compounds such as essential oils
- these formulations have simply been employed to facilitate application of the pesticide directly to the pests or to the surfaces or environments inhabited by the pests.
- Microemulsions are clear uniform liquid mixtures of oil, water and surfactant.
- surfactant component is a wetting agent that lowers the surface tension of liquid
- microemulsions tend to consist of a mixture that can be spread easier than other mixtures and thus provide greater surface area.
- considerable attention has been directed toward microemulsion-based pesticidal formulations.
- the formulation of microemulsions is far from being an exact science, as many oil based pesticides are not able to microemulsify and the interactions between oil, emulsifiers and water molecules are still not completely understood, microemulsion formulations appear to be an emerging standard for the formulation of hydrophobic pesticides in water-based carriers.
- FIG. 1 depicts, in accordance with an embodiment described herein, a chart of percent of insects knocked down by of formulations of a blend containing the ingredients in the exemplified form of Ingredient Family 24 applied to the German cockroach.
- FIG. 2 depicts, in accordance with an embodiment described herein, a chart of percent killed versus time by formulations of a blend containing the ingredients in the exemplified form of Ingredient Family 24 applied to the German cockroach.
- the present disclosure relates to emulsion-based formulations of pesticides, specifically pesticidal blends of essential oils and other ingredients, that have been found to enhance the activity of the active pesticidal ingredients.
- the activity of an ingredient may be greatly enhanced and the efficacy of the pesticide may be vastly improved.
- enhancing the activity of a key ingredient can also be helpful in reducing the amount of active ingredients that may be required for effective pest control. This, in turn, improves the overall safety of the pesticide and may increase the likelihood of a pesticide receiving EPA approval when it becomes developed for commercial application.
- the present disclosure relates to a dust formulation that also improves the activity of pesticidal blends that are formulated in this manner.
- dust formulations are employed in hard-to-reach areas that are not amenable to the application of liquid sprays.
