Objective To research the serial toxic effects of 0.05% fipronil cockroach gel bait on adults and nymphs of Blattella germanica. Methods This experiment used pipette to offer insecticide in the first efficacy experiment; and the serial toxic effect experiment was conducted using the dead insect of last serial toxic effect experiment to feed the cockroach. Results The first to fourth secondary effects of tested insecticide on adults reached 100%, the fifth secondary effects from the remains amounted to 78.3%. Against nymphs, however, only the first two secondary effects reached 100%, the third and fourth mortality were only 48.3% and 15.0%. The results indicated that 0.05% fipronil cockroach gel bait can continuously controlB. germanica effectively and it was more effectively on adults than on nymphs. Conclusion Fipronil has a good serial toxic effect on B. germanica.
Objective Examine the effect of used feed by Periplaneta americana on feeding behavior of Blattella germanica to explore causes of B. germanica displacing P. americana. Methods Feeding amount, shape and Y-tube olfactometer experiments. Results Blattella germanica prefered P. americana used feed(feed B), 33.48 times of fresh mouse feed(feed A)(P<0.05)through 2-12 d by feeding amount experiment; During 14-26 d,feeding amount of two feeds were similar(P>0.05); while during 28-36 d, Blattella germanica preferred feed A 3.02 times more than feed B (P<0.05). In Y-tube lactometer experiment, all B. germanica selected the feed B. And the shape experiment indicated that the shape didn't affect the feed amount of B. germanica(P>0.05). Conclusion The quick adaption of B. germanica to P. americana used feed improve their chance of survival.
Rodents threaten human health and well-being seriously. Physical and chemical means can reduce the population of rodents within a short time, but long-term, sustainable measures are needed to suppress rodent populations. As a safe, long-acting, eco-friendly and economical mean of deratization, environment control measures can keep rodent population low for a long time by eliminating or reducing food and water resources, as well as available shelters through environmental management and rat-proof construction. At present, measures of environment control have made remarkable achievement in deratization of different places.
Objective To investigate the species, host, distribution and status of tick-borne pathogens in Jinan city. Methods The parasitic ticks were collected from the host skin by hand or tweezers and the free ticks were collected manually with white cloth from the grassland or shrubbery. Collected ticks were classified and tested for tick-borne pathogens. Results There were 614 and 108 ticks collected on 6 hosts and in 2 types of environment, respectively. Collected ticks were Haemaphysalis longicornis. There were 596 ticks collected on goats with proportion of 97.1%. About 53.3% goats carried with ticks and the average number of ticks per goat was about 6.7. The results were positive in RNA detection of new bunyavirus in 3 groups of tick and positive of rickettsia in one group. Positive ticks were collected from goats. Conclusion The dominant tick species was H. longicornis in Shandong province. The dominant host animal was goats raised outside. Some ticks may carry bunyavirus and rickettsia.
Objective To determine the efficacy and feasibility of synthetic amorphous silica against Dermanyssus gallinae. Methods Forced contact tests were used in accordance with GB/T 13917.1-2009. Results The 3% synthetic amorphous silica was painted on three types of board at 6 g a.i/m2. For cement boards, the 24 h mortality was 100% and the residual efficacy lasted about 45 days; for silicate glass cotton board, the 24 h mortality was 100% and the residual efficacy lasted about 90 days; and for alkyd resin varnish boards, the 48 h mortality was 100% and the residual efficacy lasted about 60 days. Conclusion Synthetic amorphous silica was effective in the control of D. gallinae.
Objective To develop standard laboratory rearing techniques for Aedes albopictus in order to provide consistent, quality, standardized testing insects for use in pesticide experiments. Methods Using standard rearing techniques, the mosquitoes were bred under controlled rearing conditions. The reliability of multiregional rearing was examined based on the weight of female adults 3 days after eclosion from three batches of mosquitoes. Results All three batches resulting from standard rearing techniques yielded qualified Ae. albopictus based on the average weight, with high repeatability and low relative deviation (8.28%) of weights. As shown from the average weights of mosquitoes bred using different dietary formulas, all three approaches were applicable to different regions and the relative deviation was low (7.69%). Conclusion The rearing technique was repeatable and effective in developing weight-uniform Ae. albopictus for pesticide experiments.
Objective To explore the test methods for ant bites and to determine the killing effect of imidacloprid baits against Monomorrium pharaonis. Methods Laboratory test, simulated field test and field test were carried out. Results The LT50 value of 0.03% imidacloprid baits for M. pharaonis was 21.10 h, with a 7 d mortality of 100%. In the simulated field test, all of 4 queen ants were killed at day 5, while 100% of ergates died at day 6. In the field test, the density of M. pharaonis reduced to 98.42% at the 14 day. Conclusion Using M. pharaonis as the subject, the laboratory and simulated field test were applicable for ant baits, and 0.03% imidacloprid baits had favorable killing effect against M. pharaonis, which could be used for residential termite control.
【Abstract】 Objective To study the evaluation methods of larvicides registration and field test. Methods Larvae were collected from breeding sites in the external environment or adult mosquitoes were trapped to oviposit in man-made areas. Results The relative population index (RPI) of larvae from breeding sites was under 5 after treatment by 1% temephos granules for 4 weeks, which had a good control effect. RPI of larvae from wasted tyres was also less than 5 after treatment for 4 weeks, while it was under 10 after treatment for 3 weeks in cement pool. Conclusion The field control effect and registration of quick-acting insecticides could be evaluated by the above mentioned two methods.
