Abstract
New pesticidal compositions which dry and harden after application, said compositions consisting of at least one pesticidally active compound, at least one signal substance, at least one liquid UV absorber which is only sparingly miscible with water, at least one curable polymer which, after drying of the formulation, has a sponge-like structure or forms a porous film at least one surfactant and, if appropriate, additives. The new compositions are very suitable for combating insects and undesirable representatives of the order Acarina.
Claims2
An insecticidal attract -and-kill formulation comprising
- 0.1 to 10% by weight of an insecticidally active compound selected from cyfluthrin, .beta.-cyfluthrin and transfluthrin,
- 0.01 to 1% by weight of a signal substance selected from E,E-8,10-dodecanedienol and Z-11-tetradecenyl acetate, 10 to 90% by weight of a polyvinyl acetate,
- 10 to 80% by weight of a UV absorber selected from a benzotriazole of the formula ##STR18## in which R.sup.3 represents methyl or C.sub.2 -C.sub.12 -alkyl,
- a 2-hydroxy-4-methoxy-benzophenone of the formula ##STR19## and 2-(2-ethyl-hexyl)-2-cyano 3,3-diphenyl-2-propenoate of the formula ##STR20##
- 0. 1 to 4% by weight of a surfactant, and water
- which, after drying the aqueous emulsion formed above, forms a sponge-like mass or a porus film.
