Abstract

The present invention relates to preparation of plant origin for protection of mammals and birds from ectoparasites. The preparation is an extract from herbal mixture consisting of wormwood 70%, common centaury 20% and oregano 10%. The product has a broad range of insecticide action against lice Naematopinus suis, Naematopinus euristernus, Naematopinus asini and similar insects parasitizing on the domestic animals, against the horse fly Nirrobossa eguina parasitizing on the horses and the large ruminants, against the fleas Rulex irritans, Stenoserhalus canis, Stenoserhalu felis and other representatives of species Ruleh, genus Stenoserhalus and genus Seratohoullus. The preparation is accepted well by the treated animals, it does not accumulate in their bodies and is not allergenic. The preparation is not toxic for the personnel and does not contaminate the environment. Due to its low toxicity for the animals and the personnel, the treatment of the animals can be done indoors in cold weather.

Description

Technical field

The invention relates to a biological product for the protection of animals (mammals, birds) from external parasites (ectoparasites) and is used in agriculture.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

The climatic and geographical features of Bulgaria favor the development of a large number of ectoparasites on pasture-raised animals as well as on-farm animals. These parasites cause many animal diseases and are a major problem for veterinarians, farmers and farmers. Various preparations have been used in the fight against ectoparasites: organochlorine, organophosphorus, carbamic acid derivatives (methylcarbamate), natural pyrethrins, synthetic pyrethroids, arsenic compounds, sulfur compounds, mineral oils, poisons of vegetable origin, nicotine-containing poisons, ).

A known agent for the control of varicose veins, disclosed in the application for utility model BG 104676 A. The agent serves to combat varroatosis and bee brood and is a mixture of aqueous extract of wormwood (Artemisia sp.) Containing from 0.1 to 0, 5 wt. % dried drug and oxalic acid solution containing from 1.5 to 4.5 wt. % of it, at ratios from 1: 2 to 5: 1, preferably at a ratio of 1: 1.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

It is an object of the invention to provide a biological product that is highly toxic to external parasites in animals and non-toxic to humans and domestic animals, does not require long quarantine periods for meat and milk obtained from treated animals, ensures the least possible environmental contamination, does not lead to reductions in fertility and reproductive problems due to the possible absorption of the embryo preparation in pregnant animals.

The problem is solved by means of a biological product for the protection of animals against ectoparasites, based on the plant Artemisia (wormwood).

According to the invention, the biological product contains an aqueous-alcoholic extract of a mixture of leaves and stems of Artemisia (wormwood) 70 wt. % Centaurium erythraea (St. John's wort) 20 wt. %, Origanum vulgare (oregano) 10 wt. %.

In a particular embodiment of the invention, the dry matter content of the extract is 7.2%.

The method of producing the organic product involves cutting the stems and leaves of wild or cultivated wormwood, St. John's wort and oregano in pieces of no more than 20 mm in length. The green mass thus prepared is flooded with 90 ° C water in a ratio of water to the green mass 1: 1. The extraction was continued for 4 h while maintaining the temperature constantly and stirring. The final compost is filtered at a pressure of at least 2 bar, through a 0.5 mm aperture filter.

The organic product obtained is 3.5% of the amount of input product. The solids content of the extract is 7.2%. The extract was allowed to cool to 25 ° C, followed by the addition of 6% ethyl alcohol, which is 90% ethyl alcohol. The resulting and stabilized biological product is stored in well-sealed glass or plastic containers.

Before use, the extract is diluted with 1: 1 water.

The advantages of the present invention are that it has a wide range of insecticidal effects, is well tolerated by treated animals, does not accumulate in their body and does not allergenize them. It is non-toxic to working personnel and does not pollute the environment. There are no quarantine deadlines for meat and milk. It is harmless to bees, other beneficial insects and soil microflora. There is a low surface tension. The lack of toxicity allows the animals to be treated indoors on cold days.

Another advantage is that, despite its organic origin, the product thus obtained does not develop mold during storage and can be finely dispersed in the treatment of animals.

An exemplary embodiment of the invention

Example 1.

The proposed biological product is illustrated by the following example.

The dried stems and leaves of wild or cultivated wormwood, red St. John's wort and oregano are cut into 20 mm pieces. The green mass thus prepared is weighed and flooded with hot water at 90 ° C. The ratio of water to green mass is 1: 1. Water poor in the dissolved minerals is used.

The extraction was continued for 4 h while maintaining the temperature and stirring constantly. The resulting compost is then filtered at a pressure of at least 2 bar through a 0.5 mm aperture filter.

The biological product obtained is in the amount of 3.5% of the amount of the input product.

The solids content of the extract is 7.2%.

The extract was allowed to cool to 25 ° C, followed by the addition of 6% ethyl alcohol, which is 90-degree ethyl alcohol.

The organic product, obtained and stabilized by the method described above, is stored in well sealed glass or plastic containers.

The product is diluted with water in a 1: 1 ratio before use.

Example 2.

The toxicity and efficacy of the product have been tested in laboratory conditions.

The product has a wide range of insecticidal action against lice Haematopinus suis, Haematopinus euristemus, Haematopinus asini and similar insects parasitizing on domestic animals against Hippobosca eguina horse flies parasitizing on horses and large ruminants, ir canceis canis Ctenocephalus felis and other representatives of the genus Pulex, the genus Ctenocephalus and the genus Ceratohyllus.
