Example 28
We tested pyrethrin+perillaldehyde for efficacy against 3- to 5-day old adult Culex quinquefasciatus. For the concentration, 2% of perillaldehyde, and 0.001 μg/mosquito of pyrethrin, and 0.001 μg/mosquito of pyrethrin with 2% of perillaldehyde, at 1 hour we obtained 33%, 10%, and 80% knockdown respectively. At 24 hours we obtained 13%, 7%, and 33% mean mortality respectively. The CO2 control and acetone standard both had 0% knockdown at 1 hour, and 0% mean mortality at 24 hours. Results are shown in Table 18.
