Abstract
The invention relates to a method of controlling insects in the family Curculionidae, using at least one active ingredient selected from (I) N-(cyanomethyl)-4-(trifluoromethyl)-3-pyridinecarboxamide (flonicamid), (II) N-[[[2,5-Dichloro-4-(1,1,2,3,3,3-hexafluoropropoxy)phenyl]amino]carbonyl]-2,6-difluorobenzamide (lufenuron) and (III) 1-acetyl-3,4-dihydro-3-[(3-pyridinylmethyl)amino]-6-[1,2,2,2-tetrafluo-ro-1-(trifluoromethyl)ethyl]-2(1H)-quinazolinone (pyrifluquinazon) in free form or in agrochemically acceptable salt form.
Claims15
A method of controlling insects of the family Curculionidae, which comprises applying at least one active ingredient selected from
- (I) N-(cyanomethyl)-4-(trifluoromethyl)-3-pyridinecarboxamide;
- (II) N-[[[2,5-Dichloro-4-(1,1,2,3,3,3-hexafluoropropoxy)phenyl]amino]carbonyl]-2,6-difluorobenzamide;
- and
- (III) 1-acetyl-3,4-dihydro-3-[(3-pyridinylmethyl)amino]-6-[1,2,2,2-tetrafluoro-1-(trifluoromethyl)ethyl]-2(1H)-quinazolinone;
- in free form or in agrochemically acceptable salt form, to insects of the family Curculionidae.
(canceled)
A method of protecting a plot of at least five hectares comprising a crop of useful plants susceptible to and/or under attack by insects/pests of the family Curculionidae, said method comprising applying to said plant and/or said insects/pests at least one active ingredient selected from
- (I) N-(cyanomethyl)-4-(trifluoromethyl)-3-pyridinecarboxamide;
- (II) N-[[[2,5-Dichloro-4-(1,1,2,3,3,3-hexafluoropropoxy)phenyl]amino]carbonyl]-2,6-difluorobenzamide;
- and
- (III) 1-acetyl-3,4-dihydro-3-[(3-pyridinylmethyl)amino]-6-[1,2,2,2-tetrafluoro-1-(trifluoromethyl)ethyl]-2(1H)-quinazolinone;
- in free form or in agrochemically acceptable salt form, in a pre-defined plot part that is between 0.5 to 20%, based on area, of the plot, provided said pre-defined plot part forms the outer border of the plot, wherein said insects/pests predominantly approach the plot from the periphery of the plot.
