## Abstract

A pesticidal mixture including (a) spinetoram; and (b) a compound of group A selected from novaluron, pyriproxyfen, tau-fluvalinate, and a combination thereof.

## Claims

### Claim 1

A pesticidal mixture comprising:
(a) spinetoram; and
(b) a compound of group A selected from novaluron, pyriproxyfen, tau-fluvalinate, and a combination thereof,
wherein a weight ratio of spinetoram to the compound of group A is from 1:10 to 10:1.

### Claim 2 (depends on 1)

The pesticidal mixture according to claim 1 in a synergistic effective amount.

### Claim 3 (depends on 1)

A pesticidal composition comprising the pesticidal mixture according to claim 1; and an agriculturally acceptable carrier.

### Claim 4 (depends on 3)

The pesticidal composition according to claim 3 for use in controlling pests in a crop or a locus thereof.

### Claim 5

A method for controlling pests in a crop, comprising:
applying a pesticidal combination to pests or a locus, where control of the pest is desired,
wherein the pesticidal combination comprises:
(a) spinetoram; and
(b) a compound of group A selected from novaluron, pyriproxyfen, tau-fluvalinate, and combination thereof, and
wherein a weight ratio of spinetoram to the compound of group A is from 1:10 to 10:1.

### Claim 6 (depends on 5)

The method according to claim 5, wherein an application rate of spinetoram is from 1 g/ha to 500 g/ha.

### Claim 7 (depends on 5)

The method according to claim 5 , wherein an application rate of the compound of group A is from 1 g/ha to 500 g/ha.

### Claim 8 (depends on 5)

The method according to claim 5, wherein an application rate of the pesticidal combination according to claim 5 is from 1 g/ha to 1000 g/ha.

### Claim 9 (depends on 5)

The method according to claim 5, wherein spinetoram and the compound of group A are applied concomitantly or sequentially.

### Claim 10

A kit comprising (a) at least one container including spinetoram; (b) at least one container including a compound of group A selected from novaluron, pyriproxyfen, tau-fluvalinate, and a combination thereof; and (c) instructions for applying a combination of said spinetoram and said compound of group A a pest or a locus, where control of the pest is desired, wherein a weight ratio of spinetoram to the compound of group A is from 1:10 to 10:1.

### Claim 11 (depends on 10)

The kit of claim 10 wherein said spinetoram and said compound of group A are applied concomitantly or sequentially.

### Claim 12

A kit comprising
(a) at least one container including (i) spinetoram; and (ii) a compound of group A selected from novaluron, pyriproxyfen, tau-fluvalinate, and a combination thereof; and
(b) instructions for applying said spinetoram and said compound of group A onto a pest or a locus, where control of the pest is desired, wherein a weight ratio of spinetoram to the compound of group A is from 1:10 to 10:1.
