Abstract
A palm plant treatment method, palm plant treatment layer, palm plant treatment composition and method of making the palm plant treatment composition that relates to a layer comprising an insecticide and a polymeric adhesive present on a palm plant surface that is effective for treating or preventing infestation of the palm plant by a pest without the insecticide entering the vascular system of the palm plant.
Claims22
A palm plant treatment method, comprising:
- applying a composition comprising an insecticide and a polymeric adhesive to an exterior surface of a palm plant to form an insecticide-containing layer comprising a homogenous mixture of the insecticide and the polymeric adhesive which is in direct contact with the surface of the palm plant,
- wherein the insecticide-containing layer is effective for treating or preventing infestation of the palm plant by a pest without the insecticide entering the vascular system of the palm plant.
A pest resistant palm plant surface, comprising:
- an exterior surface of a palm plant and an insecticide-containing layer comprising a homogenous mixture of the insecticide and the polymeric adhesive,
- wherein the insecticide-containing layer is in direct contact with the surface of the palm plant, and
- wherein the insecticide-containing layer is effective for treating or preventing infestation of the palm plant by a pest without the insecticide entering the vascular system of the palm plant.
An insecticide for preventing infestation of palm trees by a red palm weevil, comprising:
- a polyvinyl acetate adhesive, chlorpyrifos and camphor oil, wherein the chlorpyrifos and the camphor oil are homogenously dispersed in the polyvinyl acetate adhesive.
An insecticide for preventing infestation of palm trees by a red palm weevil, comprising:
- a polyvinyl acetate adhesive and chlorpyrifos, wherein the chlorpyrifos is homogenously dispersed in the polyvinyl acetate adhesive.
An insecticide for preventing infestation of palm trees by a red palm weevil, comprising:
- a polyvinyl acetate adhesive, teflutrin and camphor oil, wherein the teflutrin and the camphor oil are homogenously dispersed in the polyvinyl acetate adhesive.
An insecticide for preventing infestation of palm trees by a red palm weevil, comprising:
- a polyvinyl acetate adhesive and teflutrin, wherein the tefluthrin is homogenously dispersed in the polyvinyl acetate adhesive.
