The pest-controlling method of the present invention comprises applying an effective amount of the compound of the present invention to a pest or a habitat of a pest.
In the pest-controlling method of the present invention, a formulation of the compound of the present invention may be used instead of using the compound of the present invention. The formulation can be applied to a pest or a habitat of a pest.
Examples of a habitat of a pest include paddy fields, cultivated lands, orchards, non-crop lands, and houses.
The application of the compound of the present invention or a formulation thereof to a pest or a habitat of a pest can be attained by a conventional method as long as it allows the pest to contact with or ingest the compound of the present invention.
Examples of the application method include spraying treatment, soil treatment, seed treatment, and water culture medium treatment.
The spraying treatment as used herein means a treatment method which comprises treating the plant surface or a pest itself with the active ingredient (i.e. the compound of the present invention) to produce a controlling effect on the pest. Specific examples of the spraying treatment include foliage spraying treatment, and tree trunkspraying treatment.
The soil treatment is a treatment method which comprises treating soil or an irrigation liquid with the active ingredient for the purpose of allowing the active ingredient to permeate and transfer into the interior of the plant body of a crop to be protected from damage such as ingestion by a pest through the root part or the like of the plant, and thereby can protect the crop from damage by a pest. Specific examples of the soil treatment include planting hole treatment (e.g. spraying into planting holes, soil incorporation after planting hole treatment), plant foot treatment (e.g. plant foot spraying, soil incorporation after plant foot treatment, irrigation at plant foot, plant foot treatment at a later seeding raising stage), planting furrow treatment (e.g. planting furrow spraying, soil incorporation after planting furrow treatment), planting row treatment (e.g. planting row spraying, soil incorporation after planting row treatment, planting row spraying at a growing stage), planting row treatment at the time of sowing (e.g. planting row spraying at the time of sowing, soil incorporation after planting row treatment at the time of sowing), broadcast treatment (e.g. overall soil surface spraying, overall soil incorporation), other soil spraying treatment (e.g. spraying of a granular formulation on leaves at a growing stage, spraying under a canopy or around a tree stem, spraying on the soil surface, surface soil incorporation, spraying into seed holes, spraying on the ground surfaces of furrows, spraying between plants), other drenching treatment (e.g. soil drenching, drenching at a seedling raising stage, chemical injection treatment, plant foot drenching, chemical drip irrigation, chemigation), seedling raising box treatment (e.g. spraying into a seedling raising box, irrigation of a seedling raising box), seedling raising tray treatment (e.g. spraying on a seedling raising tray, irrigation of a seedling raising tray), seedbed treatment (e.g. spraying on a seedbed, irrigation of a seedbed, spraying on a lowland rice nursery, immersion of seedlings), seedbed soil incorporation treatment (e.g. seedbed soil incorporation, seedbed soil incorporation before sowing), and other treatment (e.g. culture soil incorporation, plowing, surface soil incorporation, soil incorporation at the place where raindrops fall from a canopy, treatment at a planting position, spraying of a granule formulation on flower clusters, soil incorporation of a paste fertilizer).
The seed treatment is a treatment method which comprises treating directly a seed, a seed tuber or a bulb of a crop to be protected from damage such as ingestion by a pest with or the periphery of the seed, seed tuber or bulb with the active ingredient, and thereby can produce a controlling effect on a pest. Specific examples of the seed treatment include a spraying treatment, a smearing treatment, an immersion treatment, an impregnation treatment, a coating treatment, a film coating treatment, and a pellet coating treatment.
The water culture medium treatment is a treatment method which comprises treating a water culture medium or the like with the active ingredient for the purpose of allowing the active ingredient to permeate and transfer into the interior of the plant body of a crop to be protected from damage such as ingestion by a pest through the root part or the like of the plant, and thereby can protect the crop from damage by a pest. Specific examples of the water culture medium treatment include mixing with a water culture medium, and incorporation into a water culture medium.
When the compound of the present invention is used for pest control in the field of agriculture, the application amount thereof is usually 1 to 10,000 g per 10,000 m2.
When the compound of the present invention is formulated into an emulsifiable concentrate, a wettable powder or a flowable formulation, the formulation is usually applied after it is diluted with water so that the concentration of the compound of the present invention becomes 0.01 to 10,000 ppm. When the compound of the present invention is formulated into a granule or a dust, the formulation is usually applied as it is.
Such a formulation or a water-dilution thereof may be directly sprayed to a pest or a plant such as a crop to be protected from a pest. Alternatively, soil of a cultivated land may be treated with the formulation or a water-dilution thereof in order to control a pest which inhabits the soil.
A resin formulation of the compound of the present invention may be processed into a sheet or a string. Such a resin formulation can be applied by winding a crop with a sheet or a string of the resin formulation, putting a string of the resin formulation around a crop so that the crop is surrounded by the string, or laying a sheet of the resin formulation on the soil surface near the root of a crop.
When the compound of the present invention is used for controlling pests living in a house (e.g. fly, mosquito, cockroach), the application amount thereof is usually 0.01 to 1,000 mg per 1 m2 in the case of plain surface treatment, and is usually 0.01 to 500 mg per 1 m3 in the case of space treatment.
When the compound of the present invention is formulated into an emulsifiable concentrate, a wettable powder or a flowable formulation, the formulation is usually applied after it is diluted with water so that the concentration of the compound of the present invention becomes 0.1 to 1,000 ppm. When the compound of the present invention is formulated into an oil preparation, an aerosol formulation, a fumigant or a poison bait, the formulation is usually applied as it is.
