Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

TECHNICAL FIELD The present invention relates to an attracting and fixing composition for mites and an acaricide composition.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art It is well known that mites living indoors cause allergic diseases such as asthma and dermatitis. Therefore, the chemicals are treated (spraying, spraying, etc.) indoors or held on furniture or rugs to remove the mites.

In the extermination using such a drug,
It is important that the mites make good contact with the drug. However, it is known that some drugs have repellent action against mites, and there is a problem that mites cannot be repelled and exterminated from the treated place without sufficient contact with the drug.

Therefore, means for attracting and capturing mites using an attractant, bringing them into sufficient contact with a drug, and the like are being studied. Fatty acid esters, food flavors, essential oils, etc. are known as attractants. There is.

However, the attracting effect of these attractants against mites is not always satisfactory, and there is a drawback that the attracting effect is difficult to last, and it has not been put to practical use.

[0006]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION In view of the above situation, an object of the present invention is to continuously exert a high attracting effect on mites and to fix mites on the spot. It is intended to provide a attracting and fixing composition for use, and an acaricide composition capable of effectively removing ticks that have been attracted and fixed.

[0007]

Means for Solving the Problems As a result of intensive studies to solve the above problems, the inventors of the present invention used olein alone as an active ingredient or used olein and monoterpene alcohol in combination. As a result, they have found a new fact that they can exert a high attracting effect on mites and can fix mites on the spot, thus completing the present invention.

That is, the present invention is achieved by the following configurations. (1) An attractive fixing composition for mites, which comprises olein as an active ingredient. (2) The attracting and fixing composition for mites according to (1), which is used in combination with a monoterpene alcohol. (3) An acaricide composition containing olein and an acaricide. (4) The acaricide composition according to (3), which contains a monoterpene alcohol.

The attracting and fixing composition thus prepared is used alone or in combination with an acaricide, in an adhesive trap; a disinfection device using electricity, heat, ultrasonic waves, deoxidization, etc. You can

The sticky trap is for trapping and exterminating mites with a sticky substance. For example, the sticky substance is applied and impregnated on the surface of a base material, and the attracting and fixing composition is applied to the surface of the base material. Or by coating the surface of the substrate with and impregnating the adhesive fixing composition with the attracting and fixing composition. When this sticky trap is installed in a place where it is desired to remove the mites, the mites are attracted by the attracting and fixing composition and captured by the sticky substance.

As another method of using the above-mentioned attracting and fixing composition, for example, a place where mites are desired to be exterminated is treated (for example, sprayed, coated, etc.) with the above-mentioned various forms of the formulation, and the composition is contained in the formulation.

In particular, when a formulation obtained by impregnating the attracting and fixing composition with a granular or powdery porous carrier is used as the above-mentioned formulation, the mites attracted by the attracting and fixing composition enter the pores and settle, so that it should be efficiently removed. You can

Further, in order to effectively control mites, it is preferable to use an acaricide composition in which the attracting and fixing component (olein or olein and monoterpene alcohol, the same applies below) is used in combination with a miticide. For example, a formulation such as a bait agent, an aerosol agent, and a spray agent, or a form in which it is held by coating, impregnation, or the like on a base material such as various plastic materials, cloth, tatami, and wood is suitable.

In the acaricide composition of the present invention, the acaricide is contained in an amount of 0.01 to 20% by weight, preferably 0.1 to 10.
It suffices if it is contained so as to become the weight%. Then, the attracting and fixing component may be contained in the acaricidal composition in an amount of 80 to 99.99% by weight, preferably 90 to 99.9% by weight.

In order to formulate the acaricide composition, various solid carriers and liquid carriers similar to those described above may be used alone or in combination with two or more in accordance with the intended preparations such as dietary agents and attractants. Select and use. Furthermore, when formulating the acaricide composition, a surfactant, a pigment, a binder, a bactericide (preservative), a synergist, a fragrance, an antioxidant, an ultraviolet absorber, etc. are added as necessary. May be.

The thus obtained acaricide composition of the present invention is used, for example, by spraying it on a carpet, tatami mat, sofa, bedding, stuffed animal or the like.

Since the acaricide composition of the present invention contains olein or olein, which is an attracting and fixing component, and a monoterpene alcohol, and an acaricide composition, the acaricide composition composition is treated in the vicinity of the treated area. The mites can be attracted and settled, and a high acaricidal effect can be obtained by sufficiently bringing the mites into contact with the acaricide.

[0029]

The present invention will be described in more detail with reference to the following examples, but the present invention is not limited thereto.

<Attractive Fixation Test> (1) Test Method Black paper (2 cm × 2 cm) impregnated with the test sample shown in Table 1 at 4 positions 4 cm diagonally from the center of a glass petri dish having a diameter of 15 cm. As a control, black paper (2 cm × 2 cm) impregnated with acetone was placed diagonally at two places each. Then, a mosquito deer mite colony was placed in the center of the glass petri dish, and the mites on each black paper were counted over time to determine the effect of attracting and fixing. The judgment was made by obtaining the magnification of the number of ticks of the test sample with respect to the number of ticks of the control.

[Table 1]

(2) Test Results Table 2 shows the test results. As shown in Table 2, olein,
Furthermore, Examples 1 to 4 in which olein and monoterpene alcohol were used in combination showed a high attracting effect for mites. Further, after 24 hours, many mites were fixed on the black paper, and it was found that the attractive fixing effect was high.
In particular, when triolein and citral or geraniol were contained, the attractive fixing effect was more excellent.
