Abstract

PURPOSE:To obtain a controlling agent effective against various pests, esp. Psychodidae and Phoridae, breeding from or living in purification tanks and other wastewater disposal facilities. CONSTITUTION:This controlling agent contains, as active ingredient, N-(2,6- didfluorobenzoyl)-N'-[2-fluoro-4-(2-chloro-4-(trifluoromethyl)phenoxy) phenyl]urea. This agent has extraordinarily excellent effect, at low doses, for controlling and preventing the breeding of the larvae, pupae and imagoes of Psychodidae and Phoridae, its dose being 0.001-1000ppm in terms of the level of the active ingredient. This controlling agent can further be formulated with at least one kind of agent selected from insect growth inhibitors, pyrethroid-based insecticides, pyrethroid-like insecticides, organophosphorus-based insecticides, carbamate-based insecticides and chloronicotine-based insecticides, and a synergistic agent such as butyl carbitol, 6-propyl-piperonyl ether or isobornylocyanato acetate.

Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a pest control agent for flies and flies that occur in septic tanks and wastewater treatment facilities.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art With the spread of septic tanks in recent years, sanitary pests such as mosquitoes and cockroaches and unpleasant pests such as fly flies, fleas, chironomids, and spiders have become a problem.
The septic tank must be maintained and inspected at regular intervals according to the Ordinance of the Ministry of Health and Welfare, and when the maintenance and inspection worker opens the manhole and works, it enters the mouth and nose and interferes with the work. In addition, various pests generated in the septic tank enter the room from the septic tank and cause discomfort to humans, and it is desired to exterminate these pests. In particular, butterfly flies such as Drosophila melanogaster, Drosophila melanogaster, and flea flies such as Pleurotus chinensis flies, fleas fly fleas, and horn fly flies crawl scum and wall surfaces floating in the wastewater of various septic tanks, and adults are generally nocturnal activities. In the daytime, it is stationary in the shade, but at night it crowds in humid places such as toilets, kitchens, bathrooms, etc., which is not only unpleasant, but at times it is thought that it may contaminate food etc. The effective extermination is longed for. Conventionally, as agents for controlling hygienic pests and unpleasant pests generated in such septic tanks, organic phosphorus compounds such as dichlorvos and pyrethroid insecticides such as empensulin, juvenile hormone-like compounds such as pyriproxyfen (J
HM agent) is used. An example of the use of a chitin synthesis inhibitor in this type of control agent is N-2,6-difluorobenzoyl-N'-4-chlorophenylurea (generic name; diflubenzuron), which is insoluble in water and floats in water. JP-A-2-247102 discloses that it can be contained in a substance and used as a pest control agent for a septic tank. On the other hand, N- (2,6-difluorobenzoyl)-
N '-[2-fluoro-4- (2-chloro-4- (trifluoromethyl) phenoxy] phenylurea is useful as an insecticide such as Yaga ( Spodoptera litteralis ) and Aedes aegypti, and as an acaricide such as mite. This is described in JP-A-60-231635.

[0003]

However, dichlorvos, which is used as a control agent of this kind by impregnating a resin plate in a septic tank, is a highly toxic chemical per se, so it must be handled with extreme caution. Is.
In addition, pyrethroid insecticides and the like used as an oil agent can exterminate adults in the septic tank at the time of treatment, but the effect cannot be sustained for a long time against newly emerged adults from larvae and pupae that could not be exterminate. However, in order to completely carry out the control, it is necessary to carry out direct spraying and fumes several times within 1 to 3 weeks in the septic tank, which is a problem that it takes time and cost. As a method for exterminating larvae, organophosphorus or pyrethroid insecticides, hydrating agents such as JHM agents, etc. are sprayed on the sewage, but high-concentration drug treatment is required, and therefore it is included in the drug. There is a problem in that the amount of spray is extremely difficult to set because no one can easily spray it, because the activated sludge in the septic tank may be adversely affected by the solvent that is present and the function of the septic tank may be lost. Further, as a method for simultaneously exterminating adults and larvae, a JHM agent such as a pyrethroid insecticide or pyriproxyfen is sprayed on the surface of scum or sewage as an aerosol agent, but larvae of some insect pests such as fleas are larvae. In extermination, there is a problem in efficacy, such as a large amount of spraying is required. As described above, although there are various methods for controlling various pests that occur in septic tanks, in terms of the control effect, the sustainability of the control effect, especially in terms of exterminating fly flies and fleas flies, etc. There was no satisfactory pesticide.
