Pesting

Aldrin is insecticidally active as a contact and stomach poison against a wide range of soil pests. It is non-phytotoxic and does not cause taint. Aldrin is toxic to humans and animals and is now less used. [Pg.20]

Budapest between the two World Wars was a vibrant, cultnred city with excellent theaters, concert halls, opera house, and museums. The city consisted of ten districts. The working-class industrial outskirts of Pest had their row-houses, whereas the middle-class inner city had quite imposing apartment buildings. The upper classes and aristocracy lived in their villas in the hills of Buda. [Pg.40]

Juvabione is a substance produced by some conifers in imitation of a hormone in an insect pest. It may be a kind of natural control of the pest as it prevents it reaching maturity. [Pg.136]

Grandisol, with a four-membered ring, is another insect hormone, the male sex hormone of the boll weevil to be precise. It may also be useful as a highly specific pest control. How might it be made ... [Pg.136]

Every continent, except Antarctica, grows com 40% of the present world crop is produced in the United States. In the 1987—1988 crop year, 12 states (Iowa, HI., Nebr., Minn., Ind., Ohio, Wis., Mo., S. Dak., Mich., Kans., and Tex. in order of production) produced 157.5 million metric tons (6.2 biUion bushels) that was 88% of the United States and 36% of the world s crop (66). Yield is influenced by many factors, including climate, pest control, planting density, and fertilization. Yield in the United States has increased from about 1.5 metric tons /hectare in the 1930s to about 7.5 metric tons /hectare. In 1985, a test plot produced 23.2 metric tons /hectare and yields approaching 40 metric tons /hectare are considered possible com is the most productive of the principal food crops. [Pg.359]

There are many details of good vineyard management as there are for any crop, but grapes are relatively tolerant, being perennials with deep roots and not high in water or fertility requirements. A few pests are special, notably grape phylloxera, a root louse native to America, but spread nearly... [Pg.372]

Most emphasis is placed on a program of rigorous preventive maintenance. Appropriate climate conditions can help to prevent mold attack, which typically only occurs at elevated relative humidity. Storage furniture which provides an effective barrier for insects, regular inspection of the collections, monitoring of all collection areas with insect traps, and access control measures which minimize the chance of insect entry into the collection areas, are some aspects of an effective pest control management program (175). [Pg.429]

Economic Market. The spice trade is controlled by many direct elements and responds slowly to supply and demand fluctuations. Resupply depends on growth to plant maturity, which for certain items, such as black pepper or nutmeg, can be several years. The raw material is directly affected by climate, adverse weather conditions, and control of plant diseases and insect and animal pests. Limited agricultural scientific advances are appHed to the cultivation of the botanicals, and there are many grades of product and degrees of quahty caused by different growing or processing conditions, sometimes by unknown factors as well. [Pg.24]

Many fluorinated, biologically active agents have been developed and successfully used in the treatment of diseases. The biological property of fluorinated organics has been further extended to applications in the agrochemical and pest management fields. [Pg.269]

Fluoroacetic acid [144-49-OJ, FCH2COOH, is noted for its high, toxicity to animals, including humans. It is sold in the form of its sodium salt as a rodenticide and general mammalian pest control agent. The acid has mp, 33°C bp, 165°C heat of combustion, —715.8 kJ/mol( —171.08 kcal/mol) (1) enthalpy of vaporization, 83.89 kJ /mol (20.05 kcal/mol) (2). Some thermodynamic and transport properties of its aqueous solutions have been pubHshed (3), as has the molecular stmcture of the acid as deterrnined by microwave spectroscopy (4). Although first prepared in 1896 (5), its unusual toxicity was not pubhshed until 50 years later (6). The acid is the toxic constituent of a South African plant Dichapetalum i mosum better known as gifirlaar (7). At least 24 other poisonous plant species are known to contain it (8). [Pg.307]

Termites may cause more direct monetary damage than any other group of insect pests. It has been estimated that termites damage human made stmctures annually to the extent of 1% of their value in the United States and to 10% in the tropics. [Pg.267]

Since the early 1940s, insecticides have been of immeasurable value in curbing the ravages of insect pests. In the words of the National Academy of Sciences "...when their use is approached from sound ecological principles, chemical pesticides provide dependable and valuable tools for the biologist. Their use is indispensable in modem society. There are many problems of insect pest control for which the use of chemicals provides the only acceptable solution. Chemical pesticides will continue to be one of the most dependable weapons for the entomologist for the foreseeable future" (6). [Pg.267]

The primary goals of 1PM are (/) to determine how the life system of the pest needs to be modified to reduce the numbers to tolerable levels, ie, below the economic threshold (2) to apply biological knowledge and current technology to achieve the desired modification, ie, appHed ecology and (2) to devise procedures for pest control compatible with economic and environmental control aspects, ie, economic and social acceptance (9). [Pg.268]

White phosphorus, iacorporated ia sweet syrup, forms a useful bait for cockroaches. SiUcic acid, Si02 or H2Si02, very finely divided, is a rapidly acting desiccant that kills cockroaches, fleas, termites, and stored-grain pests by dehydration. [Pg.269]
