  • compositions containing the higher concentration of mineral oil were more effective against adult German cockroaches than the lower concentration compositions (i.e., the 20% compositions).
  • the 20% compositions only the PD-23 had any effect against the cockroaches.
  • an aerosol pesticidal composition of the present disclosure was prepared.
  • the ingredients and amounts used to prepare the composition are set forth in Table 10 below.
  • the composition was prepared by mixing the mineral oil, ethyl lactate, isopropyl myristate and geraniol together until homogenous.
  • the resulting composition was placed in an aerosol can.
  • the lid and actuator of the aerosol can were sealed onto the top of the can.
  • the carbon dioxide was introduced into the can through the actuator to pressurize the can.
  • the resulting product can be used as an aerosol spray pesticidal composition.
  • PD23 and PD28 mineral oils were obtained from Sonneborn LLC, Mahwah, N.J. The physical properties of these oils are shown in Table 11. Each mineral oil was tested to determine the LD 50 and LD 10 (Table 12).
  • the alcohols tested comprise C1-C14 saturated straight chain alcohols, and alcohols selected from the group consisting of isopropyl alcohol, 2-butanol, isobutyl alcohol, tertiary butyl alcohol, 2-butoxyethanol, 2-phenylethanol and diacetone alcohol.
  • the tested alcohols were obtained from Sigma-Aldrich Corp., St. Louis, Mo. Each alcohol was tested to determine the LD 50 and LD 10 (Table 12).
  • the dose-response mortality data were analyzed using probit analysis (PoloPlus ⁇ , LeOra Software Co., Petaluma Calif., 2003) to estimate LD 50 and LD 10 values and their 95% confidence intervals.
  • compositions comprising various alcohols and/or mineral oil at killing cockroaches was tested.
  • compositions comprising alcohol and/or mineral oil are described in Table 13. The tests were performed as described in Example 1.
  • the composite data for certain compositions is presented below (Table 14), also including the calculated proportion of cockroaches dead at 24 hours for the group treated with alcohol alone and for the group treated with the composition comprising PD23 and alcohol.
  • Table 14 The difference between the proportion of dead cockroaches in the group treated with the composition comprising PD23 and alcohol and the group treated with alcohol alone was calculated, and is also presented in Table 14.
  • the increase in mortality indicates a synergistic effect with the combination compared to the alcohol or mineral oil alone, with a higher difference indicating a greater synergy.
  • the straight chain saturated alcohols with chain lengths of C3-C7 demonstrated the greatest increase, or difference, in mortality when combined with PD23 mineral oil, as compared to the other alcohols tested.
  • an aerosol pesticidal composition of the present disclosure was prepared.
  • the ingredients and amounts used to prepare the composition are set forth in Table 15 below.
  • the composition was prepared by mixing a geraniol/nerol composition with the mineral oil, ethyl lactate, isopropyl myristate and lemongrass oil until homogenous.
  • the resulting composition was placed in an aerosol can.
  • the lid and actuator of the aerosol can were sealed onto the top of the can.
  • the carbon dioxide was introduced into the can through the actuator to pressurize the can.
  • the resulting product can be used as an aerosol pesticidal composition.
  • compositions comprising various compounds and/or mineral oil at killing cockroaches was tested.
  • the compounds tested are shown in Table 16. The tests were performed as described in Example 1.
  • the composite data for certain compositions is presented below (Table 17), also including the calculated proportion of cockroaches dead at 24 hours for the group treated with the specific compounds alone and for the group treated with the composition comprising PD23 and the compound.
  • Table 17 The difference between the proportion of dead cockroaches in the group treated with the composition comprising PD23 and the compounds and the group treated with the compounds alone was calculated, and is also presented in Table 17.
  • the increase in mortality indicates a synergistic effect with the combination compared to the tested compound or mineral oil alone, with a higher difference indicating a greater synergy.
  • ⁇ -butyrolactone, nitromethane, acetophenone, triacetin, pyridine and 2-ethoxyethanol demonstrated the greatest increase in mortality when combined with PD23 mineral oil, as compared to the other compounds tested.
