Description

  The present invention relates to a composition useful for controlling fly flies without using a pesticide substance, and a spray product and a fly fly control method using the same.

Fruit flies such as Drosophila have been targeted for control because they are frequently generated from garbage and spoiled foods, causing discomfort to humans. In general, aerosols for flies and mosquitoes are sprayed, smoke agents are treated, and the like (for example, see Non-Patent Document 1). However, the fly flies may not be able to obtain a sufficient control effect compared to the house flies. This is thought to be due to the fact that the fly flies are easy to change generations and develop resistance to insecticides. For this reason, studies on novel active compounds for use in controlling fly flies are still underway, and one of these is known as caran-3,4-diol (see, for example, Patent Document 1). However, the active compound is controlled by suppressing the invasion of the fly to a septic tank or the like, and it has not been shown to exert an insecticidal effect on the fly.
Formulations that have been examined as insecticides for fly flies include aerosols containing insecticide components and hydrocarbons (see Patent Document 2), but pyrethroids and other insecticides and flammable hydrocarbons. Including this, the user cannot obtain a sufficient sense of security. In addition, few compounds other than the insecticidal substance are known for controlling fly flies.

Of course, the place of use is not limited to these, and it can also be used in places where fruit flies such as outdoors, verandas, trash cans, and trash cans are generated.

(Test Example 1)
The compositions shown in Table 1 were prepared, 150 mL each was filled into a 300 mL volume aerosol container, and nitrogen gas was charged into a specimen having an internal pressure of 0.7 MPa.

  A test system as shown in FIG. 1 was installed in a chamber (3.6 m × 3.6 m × 2.7 m) corresponding to 8 tatami mats. A cage (φ13 cm × L15 cm) containing 10 test insects (mixed Drosophila melanogaster, male and female) was hung at a height of 150 cm from the floor of the chamber, and the specimen was suspended from a distance of 15 cm for about 2 seconds (about 4.8 g). ) After horizontal injection, the state of the test insect was observed 1 minute after the injection, and the knockdown (hereinafter referred to as KD) rate and the mortality rate were calculated. The test was performed three times, and the average results are shown in Table 2.

  As the ethanol concentration decreased, the efficacy decreased. The mortality rate of the test insects at 95% by weight and 60% by weight of ethanol was equivalent, and the mortality rate was drastically decreased at 40% by weight or less.

(Test Example 2)
The sample of Reference Example 4 was equipped with buttons having different nozzle diameters and used for the test.
Using a laser light scattering particle size distribution analyzer LDSA-1400A (manufactured by Tohnichi Computer Applications Co., Ltd.), the measurement was performed three times, and the average value of the volume average particle diameter d50 was defined as the average particle diameter.
Tests were performed under the same conditions as in Test Example 1 using four types of specimens with different buttons and different spray particle sizes. However, the specimen injection amount was adjusted to about 4.8 g (an amount corresponding to the 2-second injection in Test Example 1), and the test insects that were unable to fly after 1 minute were observed. The test was performed three times, and the average result is shown in Table 3.

  When the average particle size was 100 μm, 100% of the test insects could not fly, and even when the particle size was 70 μm and 157 μm, it was 80% or more.

(Test Example 3)
The specimen of Reference Example 4 was sprayed with the four types of hand pump trigger sprays shown in Table 4, and d50 was measured in the same manner as in Test Example 2.
It was confirmed that even with a hand pump, it was possible to achieve a spray particle size suitable for controlling flies, similar to aerosols.

(Test Example 4)
The composition shown in Table 5 was prepared, and the same test as in Test Example 1 was performed as an aerosol sample similar to that in Test Example 1. However, the mortality after 24 hours was also observed. The test was performed three times, and the average results are shown in Table 6.

  It has been found that the lethality increases after 24 hours by adding a surfactant that can be dissolved or solubilized in water or a solvent containing water in addition to a mixture of plant essential oil and ethanol and water.

(Test Example 5)
The composition of Example 4 shown in Table 7 as in Test Example 1 and likewise aerosol formulation and a sample was, by using the pump formulation filled with the composition of Reference Example 8 to a hand pump, the same test as in Test Example 1 went. However, the injection amount of aerosol was 4.8 g (corresponding to injection for 2 seconds), the injection amount of the pump was adjusted to about 4.5 g (5 pushes), and the lethality after 24 hours was observed as in Test Example 3. . The test was performed three times, and the average result is shown in Table 8. The volume average particle diameter d50 of the spray particles was about 120 μm.

  Even with the hand pump formulation, the apparent KD rate (accurate KD rate + mortality rate) reached 73%.

(Test Example 6)
Tests were carried out in the same test system as in Test Example 1, using a specimen prepared from the composition of Example 4 shown in Table 7 as an aerosol preparation in the same manner as in Test Example 1. However, the number of test insects was 20 house flies (female), and the distance between the specimen and the cage containing the test insects was 25 cm. The specimen was sprayed horizontally for 2 seconds (about 4.8 g) and 3 seconds (about 7.2 g), and the KD rate after 1 minute and the mortality rate after 24 hours were observed. The test was performed twice and the average results are shown in Table 9.

  As can be seen from comparison with the results shown in Table 8, it can be said that the present invention is more effective in controlling the fly than the control of the housefly.
