DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to an ant venom containing a beetle.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Ants wandering around a house invade a house, causing discomfort or biting a person, which poses a problem. In order to exterminate these ants, methods of spraying insecticides directly, methods of treating drugs in habitats, methods of blending insecticides in baits, inviting ants to eat, etc. have been conventionally performed. .

[0003] However, in the method of spraying pesticides directly or the method of treating the habitat with a chemical, the directly treated individuals can be exterminated with a high probability. In some cases it does not have a devastating effect on the nest. Also, with respect to poisons, the attractants known so far have been weak in attraction effect or poor in persistence of the effect, and cannot be said to be practically sufficient. As a result, ants can become toxic during transportation,
Transport may be interrupted due to danger.

[0004]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention solves the problems of conventional ant poisons and provides ant poisons that are satisfactory in all aspects such as attracting effect and controlling effect. The purpose is to do.

[0005]

Means for Solving the Problems and Action In order to achieve the above object, the present inventors have conducted intensive studies, and as a result, it has been found that an ant venom having an excellent attracting effect can be obtained by using aphids. We have found that we can do this and completed the present invention.

[0006] The attractant used in the present invention includes dipteran midges, Tokunagay ( Tokunagay)
usurika akamusi TOKUNAGA)
And other midge insects. The beetle is preferably dried and used as a powder.

[0007] The ant poison of the present invention contains 0.
It can be present in an amount of from 1 to 90% by weight, preferably from 2 to 40% by weight, and is used together with an insecticide and usually, if necessary, an auxiliary agent. The dosage form of the ant poison of the present invention can be various, such as granules, powders, tablets, sheets, and nets, depending on the properties of the control agent, the purpose of use, and the like, and any preparation can be prepared according to a conventional method. . Examples of the insecticide used in combination include conventionally known drugs.Examples include pyrethroid-based insecticides such as allethrin, praletrin, framethrin, phenothrin, permethrin, and etofenprox.
There are silaneophane-based insecticides such as silafluofen, organic phosphorus-based insecticides such as fenitrothion and diazinon, carbamate-based insecticides such as propoxer, amidinohydrazone-based insecticides such as hydramethylnon, and boric acid. In addition, any insecticide is used not only alone as it is, but also in combination with the above various insecticides, acaricide, fungicide, herbicide, other attractant, flavor, bitterness, coloring agent, etc. A useful multi-purpose composition can be obtained by appropriately combining such as a combination.

[0008] Examples of the auxiliary include solid carriers and organic raw materials. Examples of the solid carrier include fine powders and powders such as clays (kaolin, bentonite, etc.), talc, etc. In addition, casein, gelatin, starch, carboxymethylcellulose, polyvinyl alcohol, polyethylene glycol, polyacrylic acid Fixing agents such as sodium, gum arabic and xanthan gum, binders, thickeners and dispersants are used. or,
Pupa meal, fishmeal and butterfly, moth, fly, mosquito, locust, cow,
Of course, animal dietary components obtained from birds or the like, or plant dietary components such as sugar, triglyceride, molasses, soybean, wheat, corn, millet and the like may be appropriately blended.

The ant poison of the present invention may further include piperonyl butoxide, sinepirin 500, S-
421, BHT, DBH, Yoshinox 4
Stabilizers such as 25, or sorbic acid or propionic acid,
An antifungal agent such as a fatty acid such as capric acid or oleic acid may be appropriately added to improve the controlling effect and the chemical stability.

[0010] The dosage form of the ant poison of the present invention and the amount of the aphid may be appropriately determined according to the method of application and the place of application. Thus, the ant poisonous agent of the present invention has a high attracting effect on unpleasant pests, such as millipedes, geese, and locusts, as well as ants such as black ants, brown ants, and red ants. Is shown.

[0011] In order to more clearly show that the ant poisons provided by the present invention are excellent, examples and test results of the effects are shown below.

[0012]

EXAMPLES To 10 parts by weight of beetle, 1.0 part by weight of silafluofen as an insecticide was added.
Sorbic acid, trihydrogen sugar, water and the like were added, and these were mixed well, and then molded to obtain a poison. Place and use an appropriate amount of this drug.

[0013]

Test Example 1 An outdoor field test of various poisons prepared according to the above-mentioned examples was performed by the following method. Various insecticides were prepared at 1.0 part by weight, and beetles were prepared at 5.0 and 20.0 parts by weight. Using ants as test pests (Acacia terrestris, P. aeruginosa, P. aeruginosa), 2.5 g of the poison to be tested was placed at an appropriate place about 40 cm away from each burrow in the field, and daily for 1 minute. The number of ants that enter and exit the burrow and the number of dead individuals within a radius of 50 cm of the burrow were examined to evaluate the insecticidal efficacy of the poison. Table 1 shows the results.

[0014]

[Table 1]

[0015] As a result of the test, the ant poison of the present invention containing the aphid was effective in suppressing the population density of the ants because the ants brought the food to the nest and exhibited an insecticidal effect there. On the other hand, in the case of the venom that does not contain the beetle, the ant did not carry the bait due to the repellent action of the venom, and had no effect on the nest.

[0016]

Test Example 2 An outdoor attraction test was performed by the following method in order to confirm the attractiveness of the beetle. As test pests, using ants (Pterocarpus antler, P. aeruginosa, P. serrata), and 2.5 g of a test poison prepared according to the examples at an appropriate location about 40 cm away from each burrow in the field. Was placed. The number of ants that ingested and transported the test food poison was counted, and the attractiveness was evaluated. In addition, with the test food poison of the control, the test was performed by replacing the dried aphid with other dietary components.

[0017]

[Table 2]

As a result of the test, the venom of the present invention containing aphid showed high attraction regardless of the type of ant and contributed to the improvement of the insecticidal effect. On the other hand, fish meal, pupa flour, bonito flakes, etc. were inferior in attractiveness, and among the test food components, it was recognized that Akamuushi was characteristically superior.

[0019]

Industrial Applicability The present invention provides an ant poison that is satisfactory in all aspects such as control efficacy, safety and sustainability.
