Definitions

  • This invention relates to liquid pesticides and more particularly to environmentally friendly soap-based pesticides.
  • the pesticides have improved efficacy against aphids and other insect pests.
  • pesticides of the invention have improved residuality, short and long-term efficacy against both immature and adult pests, and improved safety for both humans and plants and also bees and ladybirds.
  • the invention also relates to liquid pesticidal concentrates suitable for making the liquid pesticides by dilution with water.
  • the invention further relates to pesticides having insect-repellent properties.
  • insecticides which affect the nervous system e.g., pyrethroids, organophosphorous and carbamates; ii) insecticides which affect the endocrine or hormone system e.g., hydroprene, methoprene, pyroxyfen and fenoxycarb and iii) insecticides which inhibit exoskeleton formation e.g., benzophenyl ureas.
  • Physically acting insecticides are believed to affect the water balance of the insects e.g., boric acid, diatomaceous earth and silica aerogels.
  • One of the problems found when using chemically acting insecticides is that the insect can build up resistance in succeeding generations. Also they are undesirable because they can collect in food or in water resources and they can be toxic to animals and people.
  • US-A- 4,904,645 discloses an insecticidal solution for application to decorative and crop plants comprising a mixture of alkali metal salts of monocarboxylic acids, pyrethram, a solvent for the pyrethrum and an antioxidant
  • US-A-5,030,658 teaches the use of a sodium or potassium salt of a mixture of monocarboxylic fatty acids and a chelant agent in order to provide an arthropodicidal solution with maximum amount of active soap.
  • US-A-4,379,168, US-A-4,933,371 and US-A-6,004,569 use different components of plant natural oils to kill different invertebrates.
  • US-A-4,379,168 discloses pesticide compositions containing D-limonene as insect-killing ingredient and surfactants or emulsifiers and water. The compositions are applied to rid small animals of fleas and ticks and to rid household areas of cockroaches.
  • US-A-4,933,371 describes a method of treating animal hosts and their environment to kill fleas and ticks using linalool.
  • US-A- 6,004,569 discloses a pesticide and a method to kill invertebrates, the pesticide comprises a terpene having a six membered carbon ring and at least one oxygenated functional group and a carrier. There is no specific disclosure of the application of said pesticides to plants.
  • Inert particulate solids can also be used as insecticide. They are usually applied to plants as dried powder.
  • powder- based pesticides have a number of disadvantages including: i) it is difficult to get an even distribution of particles on the target; ii) they can easily drift off target during application; iii) the residues can be easily removed from target by air movement or water; iv) they may not adhere well to the target, and v) powder can be breathed by human and animals.
  • US- A-5, 693,344 discloses a powder pesticide composition and a method for delivering such composition.
  • the pesticide is in the form of crystalline particles comprising a fragrance which kill pests by mechanical and neural methods.
  • insecticidal soaps puncture the exoskeleton, absorb body fluid of the insect and permit the entry and neural actuation of the fragrance on the insect.
  • insecticidal soaps seem to work better when they are wet. Therefore, it would be very valuable to find a way to keep the soap wet for as long as possible in order to increase the time during which the solution is insecticidally active.
  • An object of the present invention is to provide an environmentally friendly pesticide made from naturally occurring components. It is another object to provide a liquid soap-based pesticide having improved efficacy and residuality and which is easy to handle and safe to use. It is a further object to provide an environmentally friendly insecticide having insect repellent activity.
  • Yet another object of the present invention is to provide a liquid insecticide which is easy to handle and to apply, which acts largely by a physical mode of action, which overcomes the known problems of powder-based insecticides, which has improved residuality and efficacy, and which has an improved safety and environmental profile.
  • the present invention relates in one aspect thereof to a liquid pesticide comprising soap and fragrance in levels such as to provide synergistic enhancement of insecticidal and/or other pesticidal activity.
  • a liquid pesticide in the form of a stable micellar insecticidal soap solution having the fragrance solubilised therein.
  • the insecticidal properties of soap and fragrance are synergistically enhanced by combining them in levels to produce an isotropic, thermo dynamically stable micellar solution.
  • the isotropic solution form of the composition also allows for a uniform delivery of the active insecticidal materials.
  • thermodynamically stable is meant a solution in which the individual soap and fragrance components cannot be separated by physical methods such as centrifugation (6000rpm or 4000G for 15mins at 20°C).
  • disperse phases other than soap and fragrance for example thickeners, may be additionally included as described in detail hereinbelow.
  • the outstanding performance of the present pesticide is believed to be due in part to the fact that the fragrance is in solubilised rather than emulsified form.
  • the active components can be solubilised in any organic or inorganic solvent, water is preferred in the present application.
  • liquid pesticides of the invention are effective in killing or controlling insects and other pests by a physical rather than a biochemical mechanism such as neurotoxicity.
  • the precise mechanism is not known, one possibility is that the pesticide dissolves the outer cuticle of the insect or pest leading to desiccation.
  • the pesticide forms a film over the insect or pest occluding the body surface containing the respiratory system. This film is highly wettable and evaporation occurs very slowly causing suffocation.
  • a combination of the two mechanisms is also possible. Whatever the mechanism, it would appear that the fragrance is acting as a synergist rather than a primary insecticidal or pesticidal component.
  • the fragrance is active in combination with the soap to provide a synergistic enhancement of insecticidal and pesticidal activity as demonstrated for example by the significant reduction in LC50 for the combined versus the individual treatments on a range of common insects and other pests (especially foliar pests, such as aphids, whitefly, and spider mites and lawn pests such as ants, grubs, slugs and other molluscs).
  • LC50 is defined as the lowest concentration of active (soap, fragrance or a combination thereof) required to kill 50% of insects or other pests. LC50 can be calculated by plotting the number of pests killed versus concentration of active using the test method described below. In the following, the test method is described with particular reference to the treatment of pea aphids (Acyrtho siphon pisum) on bean plants (Vicia faba) but the test can be adapted to other pest species as appropriate. The test is carried out in a glasshouse at a temperature of between 16 and 25°C at 95% relative humidity. Supplementary lighting is set to a cycle of 16 hours light and 8 hours dark provided by 400W Phillips HPI-T metal halide lamps.
  • the test is carried out on plant pots of approximately 5 cm, each containing a young bean plant with 2 to 4 leaves in a loam based compost.
  • a filter paper is positioned around the base of the plant to catch dead pests.
  • 25 aphids are placed on each plant and allowed to settle overnight.
  • the test materials and control (water) are applied to the plants up to incipient run-off using a hand held sprayer (Hozelock Polyspray II).
  • the plants are sprayed from a distance of 20 cm, the nozzle output velocity being 150 ml/min.
  • Counts of dead pests are made 24, 48 and 72 hours after application.

  • the particulate physically-active material becomes trapped by the bodies of the insect as they walk over it.
  • the particulate solid damages the insects exoskeleton mainly by absorbing lipid molecules from their waxy epicuticle. Abrasion can also play an important role, puncturing the insect exoskeleton.

  • a combination of attractants may be as or even more effective than the attractants individually.
  • Useful insect growth regulators include but are not limited to methoprene, fenoxycarb, and pyriproxyfen.
  • Chitin inhibitors include but are not limited to flufenoxuron (sold as "Motto” by the Shell Chemical Company of Houston, Tex.) and lufenuron (as sold by the Ciba- Geigy Corp. of Greensboro, N.C.).
  • Living insect pathogens such as insect pathogenic viruses, bacteria, fungi, or nematodes, also may be delivered to a target insect by inclusion in the liquid pesticide.
  • strains of Baculo virus include strains of Baculo virus, other useful bacteria such as strains of Bacillus thuringiensis and Bacillus sphaericus, strains of the fungus Verticillium, and naturally occurring entomogenous nematodes, such as those sold under the mark "Biosafe” by Biosys, Inc. of Palo Alto, Calif.
  • insect controlling materials may be derived or recovered from insect pathogens. Examples of such materials include the exotoxin crystals isolatable from B. thuringiensis; certain processed material from Xenorhabis spp.
  • DiBeta also known as “beta- exotoxin,” is reported to be a biological insecticide derived from the bacterial fermentation of a strain of B. thuringiensis. All types of insect control active ingredients may be used individually or in combination with other, compatible insect control active ingredients.
  • Suitable alarm pheromones to include in pesticides can be E- ⁇ -farnesene and ⁇ -pinene.
  • Plant defence mechanism can be induced by adding to the pesticide a defence protein inducing agent.
  • Inducing agent suitable herein are jasmonic acid, lower alkyl esters of jasmonic acid or jasmonic acid-like derivatives compounds.
  • compositions herein preferably include a particulate, physically active insecticidal material.
  • suitable particulate insecticidal materials include calcium carbonate, mica, talc, kaolin, bentonites, clays, attapulgite, pyrophyllite, wollastonite, silica, feldspar, sand, quartz, chalk, limestone, barytes, diatomaceous earth, synthetic inorganic or organic materials and mixtures thereof.
  • diatomaceous earth is used.
  • Diatomaceous earth is a natural occurring siliceous sedimentary mineral compound from microscopic skeletal remains of unicellular algae-like plants called diatoms. These plants have been part of the earth's ecology since prehistoric times.
  • Silicon dioxide is the major component in diatomaceous earth, generally representing about 80%> by weight of the composition.
  • Other components include calcium oxide, aluminium oxide, iron oxide and other oxides and oligo-elements.
  • diatomaceous earth has high porosity (up to eighty-five percent of the volume of diatomaceous earth is made up of tiny interconnected pores and voids), high absorptivity (diatomaceous earth can generally absorb up to four times its own weight in liquid and still exhibit the properties of dry powder), high surface area (approximately 30 m 2 /g) and is very irregular in shape, having generally spiny structures and pitted surface area.
  • Diatomaceous earth is commercially available under trademarks such as CeliteTM, Di-atomateTM and Prosper ® .
  • a fatty acid salt or a mixture of fatty acid salts are normally employed, preferred fatty acid salts being described in detail above.
  • the fatty acid salts are found to be effective in combination with the particulate physical insecticide in liquid pesticidal compositions to provide enhanced insecticidal efficacy and residuality, as well as a more homogeneous distribution of the particulate insecticide over the surface of the target substrate. This is especially surprising, given that the particulate physical insecticides are generally believed to be ineffective in liquid formulations.
  • the liquid pesticide is efficient against insects commonly found on ornamental plants, vegetable crops and fruit trees.
  • Insects found in a garden environment includes, aphids, armyworms, caterpillars, chinch bugs, flea beetles, fleahoppers, flies, fruit flies, Japanese beetles, leafhoppers, leafminers, leafrollers, loopers, lygus bugs, mealy bugs, mites, plant bug, thrips, white flies, 12-spotted cucumber beetles, beet webworms, blister beetles, cabbage looper, cabbage worms, celery leaftiers, potato beetle, corn earworm, cucumber beetles, diamondback moth larvae, european corn borer, harlequin bugs, mexican bean beetles, oblique-banded leafrollers, plant stink bugs, squash vine borers, thrips, vegetable weevils, etc. Examples
  • liquid pesticides according to the invention.
  • the compositions are given in percentage per weight.
  • 'perfume' is a combination of natural and synthetic fragrance components having insect repellant properties and incorporating , inter alia, methyl dihydro jasmonate, orange oil, petitgrain, bergamot juice phase oil, grapefruit phase oil, mandarin oil, and dihydro myrcenol.
  • 'Preservative' is a 50/50 mix of benzyl alcohol and phenylethyl alcohol.
  • the compositions of Examples I to XV have excellent insecticidal efficacy against a range of foliar pests as well as an excellent safety profile for both humans and plants.
