Definitions

• the present invention relates to the use of insecticidal gels or foams for the effective protection of perennial crops from migratory animal pests.
• Most perennial crops e.g. Wine, citrus fruits, pome and stone fruits, nut trees and tea are infested by insects that migrate from the soil - either from the root zone or other areas. They pass the stem base into the upper growth areas of the perennial plants, which include leaves, fruits, nuts or other vegetative material of the plant.
• Traditional methods of controlling these pests are either soil application by means of granules or pouring solution or foliar application of pesticides.
• glue rings that are placed around strains of plants. These rings are coated with an adhesive and cause the insects that pass or creep past them to become trapped and then die. However, they contain no insecticidal substances. In addition, they must be elaborately adapted to the trunk diameter and replaced after some time, if too much of the surface is occupied by retained insects.
• the application of gel or foam formulations to the strain of plants offers effective protection against immigrant insect pests.
• a comparable protection is not achieved by the known application forms (casting or spraying), only with considerably higher expenditure or by repeated application conditionally higher expenditure amounts.
• the insecticide in the form of a gel or foam formulation is applied externally in a ring shape to the stem. Due to the nature of the application, it remains stable in this form over a longer period of time and is stable and, when immigrating the animal pests, forcibly comes into contact with them. During this contact, the insecticide acts on the animal pests and leads to their death.
• the treatment must be carried out only once before the expected migration of noxious insects, so that the application rate of active ingredient is low. Moreover, due to the formulation of the pesticide as a gel or foam, the application to the stem of the plant is very quick and easy.
• Gels are colloids in which the disperse phase together with the continuous phase forms a gellike product having the following properties: "Brookfield Viscosity" (20 rpm at 25 ° C, spindle # 7) greater than 20,000 mPa * s and Brookfield Yield point greater than 50.
• any gel or foam formulation is suitable for the process according to the invention, which under the conditions of use, i. changing temperatures, sunlight and precipitation, has sufficient dimensional stability, long-term effect and longevity, so that it adheres to the trunk throughout the treatment time and remains effective.
• Gels are preferably suitable as agrochemical formulations for the process according to the invention.
• Corresponding formulations may be prepared by known methods or are commercially available as household hygiene products, for example with the insecticidal active ingredients imidacloprid (marketed under the trade names Premise®, Profieid® Aktiv, PreEmpt® and Blattanex® Ultra, Bayer CropScience AG, Monheim, Germany) or d Phenothrin and tetramethrin ("Blattanex wasp foam” ®, Bayer CropScience AG, Monheim, Germany).
• the erf ⁇ ndungshiele method is suitable in principle for all plants.
• the method is suitable for carrying out on perennial crops.
• the method is particularly preferably suitable for carrying out on vines, citrus trees, pome fruit and stone fruit trees, nut trees and tea plants.
• the method according to the invention is suitable for carrying out on plum trees.
• the erf ⁇ ndungshiele method is in principle suitable for controlling all pest insects that migrate from the soil or the soil surface along the trunk in the vegetative zones of the affected by them plants.
• the erf ⁇ ndungswashe method is preferably suitable for controlling all insect pests that migrate from the soil or the soil surface along the trunk in the vegetative zones of vines, citrus trees, pome and stone fruit trees, nut trees and tea plants.
• the method is suitable for controlling lice, phylloxera, wood beetles, scale insects and leaf fleas.
• the agrochemical formulation is applied to the outside of the strain.
