by chemical makeup. 4 major groups (organophosphates, carbamates, pyrethroids, neonicotinoids)
28
what are quickly becoming illegal
insecticides
29
Pyrethroids
toxic to insects and small dogs
30
what generations of Pyrethroids are used

hymemoptera, polliatiors & parasitoids
34
what are organophosphates toxic to
potato beetle
35
what is organophosphates basically
nicotine substitute
36

phosphoric acids
37
examples of Aliphatic derivatives
Tepp & Malathion

pyrroles
contact and stomach
45
pyridazinones
rapid knockdown residual properties
46
pyiridine azomethines
only pymetrozine
47
oxadiazines
only indocrb, sodium channel blocker
48
Insect growth regulators
3rd gen insecticides/ biorationals
49
what do insect growth regulators do
cause death or sterility & disrupts growth process
50
repellants
chemical that causes insect to orient movement away from source
51
chlorinated hydrocarbons
synthetic organic insecticide
52
DDT
banned. humans had residue within bodies.
53
HCH & Linane
prevously BHC. kills more insects than DDT
54
Cyclodienes
More toxic than DDT and harder to apply
55
Botanicals
derived from plants/ plant products. used longer than any other type of insecticide but not any safer than synthetic
56
why are botanicals impractical
expensive to extract from plants
57
synergists
increase toxicity of insecticide directly
58
adjuvants
axuiliralies, serve to carry the insecticide or are added to improve adhesion, mixing, suface tension, or smell
59
Insecticide formulation
mix activie and inert ingredients, some need to be diluted in water or oil
60
Inscticide toxicitiy
inherent poisionous potency under a given unit of laboratory conditions

64
Insect modes of action
nerve metabolic alkylating muscle physical
65
what do nerve poisions do
affect insec nervous system
66
what do metabolic poisions do
disrupt wide range of metabolic processes within mitochondria of the cell
67
alkylating poisions
replace hydrogen in biologically significant compoints
68
muscle poisions
direct influence on muscle tissue
69
physical toxicants
