New insecticidal and acaricidal agents contain =1 benzodioxole deriv. of formula (I): (where R is H, halogen, opt. substd. alkyl, alkenyl, alkynyl, aralkyl, acyl or CN; and X and Y are each halogen). (I) are inhibitors of the development of insects and mites, and can be used as insecticides and acaricides active against all or individual stages of development.
