Abstract

Evaluation of some Synthetic Pyrethroids and Piperonyl Butoxide Combinations against Turkish House Fly (Musca domestica L.) Populations

Highlights

  • Synthetic pyrethroid insecticides have been used for more than fifty years to control of agricultural, veterinary and forestry insect pests in the world (Pasay et al, 2009; Scoot, 2017)

  • The KDT50 were more decreased by insecticide+Piperonyl butoxide (PBO) combinations than insecticides that are used alone (Table I)

  • The highest KDT50 values for Permethrin, Deltamethrin and Cypermethrin without PBO were determined for Şanlıurfa, Ankara and Şanlıurfa strains, respectively

Summary

Introduction

Synthetic pyrethroid insecticides have been used for more than fifty years to control of agricultural, veterinary and forestry insect pests in the world (Pasay et al, 2009; Scoot, 2017). These insecticides are recommended by World Health Organization (2006) against the various public health pests for indoor and outdoor conditions. Many insecticide/acaricide formulations used against agricultural/public health pests including mosquitoes, ticks, mites and fleas contain the active ingredient Piperonyl butoxide (PBO). PBO is mainly used as synergistic agent for pesticides and it is often combined with synthetic
