A method for controlling pests infesting fruit vegetables, flowers and ornamental plants

摘要

PURPOSE: To accurately control noxious insects of fruits, vegetables or ornamental plants by allowing absorption of a specific compound on stalk surfaces. ;CONSTITUTION: Noxious insects of fruits, vegetables or ornamental plants is controlled by allowing absorption, on the surface of the stalks of plants, of a compound of formula I [R is H, acyl, alkyl or heteroarylalkyl optionally substituted in an arbitrary manner; A is H, alkyl or divalent group combining with B; B is alkyl, SR, formula II, divalent group combining with A; Y is N, CT¹ (T¹ is H, alkyl optionally substituted in an arbitrary manner); X is electron- withdrawing group], e.g. l-(6-chloro-3--pyridylmethyl)-N-nitro-imidazolidine-2- indeneamine by painting it around the stalks or applying external pressure on the stalks with a protrusion-shaped utensil having an injection nozzle for the compound. This method enables the reduction of the effective concentration of an active component and the more accurate control of noxious insects over a long period at the same time. Further, this method is very preferable from the viepoint of workability and environmental influences.;COPYRIGHT: (C)1994,JPO
