When the compound of the present invention is used as an active ingredient of the insecticidal, acaricidal composition, it may be used as it is without any addition of other ingredients, but usually, it is used in the formulations such as oil formulations, emulsifiable concentrates, wettable powders, flowable formulations, granules, dusts, aerosols and poisonous baits by mixing it with solid carriers, liquid carriers, gaseous carriers, baits or the like, and if necessary, by adding thereto surface active agents and/or other adjuvants for the formulation.
These formulations usually contain the present compound as the active ingredient in an amount of from 0.01% to 95% by weight.
The solid carriers usable in the formulations include, for example, clays (such as kaolin clay, diatomaceous earth, synthetic hydrated silicon dioxide, bentonite, Fubasami clay and acid clay), talcs, ceramics, other inorganic minerals (such as sericite, quartz, sulfur, activated carbon, calcium carbonate and hydrated silica), chemical fertilizers (such as ammonium sulfate, ammonium phosphate, ammonium nitrate, urea fertilizer and ammonium chloride), and the like, each in the form of fine powders or granules. The liquid carriers include, for example, water, alcohols (such as methanol and ethanol), ketones (such as acetone and methyl ethyl ketone), aromatic hydrocarbons (such as benzene, toluene, xylene, ethylbenzene and methylnaphthalene), aliphatic hydrocarbons (such as hexane, cyclohexane, kerosene and gas oil), esters (such as ethyl acetate and butyl acetate), nitriles (such as acetonitrile and isobutyronitrile), ethers (such as diisopropyl ether and dioxane), acid amides (such as N,N-dimethylformamide and N,N-dimethylacetamide), halogenated hydrocarbons (such as dichloromethane, trichloroethane and carbon tetrachloride), dimethyl sulfoxide, vegetable oils such as soybean oil and cotton seed oil, and the like. The gaseous carriers, i.e. propellants, include, for example, Flon gas, butane gas, LPG (liquified petroleum gas), dimethyl ether, carbon dioxide gas, and the like.
The surface active agents usable for the emulsification, dispersion, wetting and the like include, for example, anionic surface active agents such as the salts of alkyl sulfates, the salts of alkyl(aryl)sulfonic acids, the salts of dialkyl sulfosuccinates, the salts of polyoxyethylene alkylaryl ether phosphates and naphthalenesulfonic acid/ formaldehyde condensates, and nonionic surface active agents such as polyoxyethylene alkyl ethers, polyoxyethylene polyoxypropylene block copolymers, sorbitan fatty acid esters and polyoxyethylene sorbitan fatty acid esters.
As to the adjuvants for the formulation, the stickers and dispersing agents include, for example, casein, gelatin, polysaccharides (such as starch powder, gum arabic, cellulose derivatives and alginic acid), lignin derivatives, bentonite, saccharides, synthetic water-soluble polymers (such as polyvinyl alcohol, polyvinyl pyrrolidone and polyacrylic acids) and the like. The stabilizers include, for example, PAP (isopropyl acid phosphate), BHT (2,6-di-tert-butyl-4-methylphenol), BHA (a mixture of 2-tert-butyl-4-methoxyphenol and 3-tert-butyl-4-methoxyphenol), vegetable oils, mineral oils, surface active agents, fatty acids and their esters, and the like.
The substrates for the poisonous baits include, for example, bait components such as grain powders, vegetable essential oils, saccharides and crystalline cellulose, antioxidants such as dibutylhydroxytoluene and nordihydroguaiaretic acid, preservatives such as dehydroacetic acid, mis-eating inhibitors such as red pepper powders, attractive perfumes such as cheese perfume and onion perfume, and the like.
The flowable formulations (suspension in water or emulsion in water) are prepared, in general, by finely dispersing 1 to 75% of the active compound into water containing 0.5 to 15% of a dispersing agent, 0.1 to 10% of a dispersing auxiliary (such as protective colloids and compounds capable of giving thixotropy) and 0 to 10% of a suitable adjuvant (such as deforming agents, anticorrosives, stabilizers, spreaders, penetration auxiliaries, antifreezing agents, antibacterial agents and antimolding agents). It is also possible to prepare the suspension in oil by using an oil scarcely dissolving the active compound in place of the water. The protective colloids include, for example, gelatin, casein, gums, cellulose ethers, polyvinyl alcohol and the like, and the compounds capable of giving thixotropy include, for example, bentonite, aluminum magnesium silicate, xanthan gum, polyacrylic acid and the like.
The formulations thus obtained can be used directly or after diluted with a diluent such as water. Alternatively, they can be used as a mixture with any other agent such as insecticides, acaricides, nematocides, soil-pest controlling agents, insect pest controlling agents, fungicides, herbicides, plant growth regulators, synergists, fertilizers and soil improvers, and also can be used simultaneously with any of these agents without mixing.
When the compound of the present invention is used as the active ingredient of the insecticidal, acaricidal compositions for agricultural use, the dosage rate of the active ingredient is usually from 1 g to 1000 g per 10 ares. The emulsifiable concentrates, wettable powders, flowable formulations and the like may be diluted with water at the usage, and their application concentration is from 10 ppm to 1000 ppm as the concentration of the active ingredient. The granules, dusts and the like are normally applied as they are without any dilution. When the insecticidal, acaricidal compositions are use for the household use or public hygiene, the emulsifiable concentrates, wettable powders, flowable formulations and the like are applied by diluting them with water to a concentration of the active ingredient of from 0.1 ppm to 1000 ppm, while the oil formulations, aerosols, misting agents, poisonous baits and the like are applied as they are.
Since the dosage rate and the application concentration possibly vary with any situations such as the kind of formulations, the seasons, place and manner of the application, the kind of pests, and the degree of damage, they may be increased or decreased irrespective of the above-mentioned ranges.
The present invention will more fully be described by referring production examples, as well as formulation examples and test examples, which are, however, not to limit the present invention.
First, the production examples will be illustrated.

Production Example 1: Preparation of the compound (2-79)
To a stirred mixture of 4-[4-(1,1,2,2-tetrafluoroethoxy)phenoxy]benzylamine (359 mg, 1.14 mM), triethylamine (136 mg, 1.35 mM) and toluene (20 ml) was added dropwise a solution (10 ml) of 4-chloro-1,3-dimethylpyrazole-5-carbonyl chloride (200 mg, 1.04 mM) in toluene at 0.degree.-10.degree. C., and the mixture was stirred for 3 h at room temperature. The mixture was poured into ice water, and the mixture was extracted with toluene. The extract was washed with saturated sodium hydrogen carbonate solution, saturated ammonium chloride solution and brine, dried with magnesium sulfate, and concentrated in vacuo. The residue was chromatographed over silica gel to give N-{4-[1,1,2,2,-tetrafluoroethoxy)phenoxy]-benzyl}-4-chloro-1,3-dimethylpyrazole-5-carboxamide (420 mg, 86%) as colorless crystals, m.p. 101.3.degree.

Test Examples 3: Insecticidal test against diamondback moths (Plutella xylostella)
An emulsifiable concentrate of a test compound formulated according to the Formulating Example 1 was diluted with water to make an emulsion (corresponding to 50 ppm concentration). Two of radish shoots (5-6 days after sowing) were immersed into the emulsion for 30 minutes, then air-dried, and placed in a cage in which a lot number of wild, adult diamondback moths of 1-3 day age after emergence have been released, to allow them to lay eggs. At the time of 100-150 eggs laid on each shoot, the shoots were taken out of the cage, and placed in a polyethylene cup of 5.5 cm diameter. The mortality of the larvae after hatching was observed. (two replications)
The mortalities were shown in 3 degrees as mentioned below:
a: 100%,
b: not less than 70%, but less than 100%,
c: less than 70%.
The results are shown in Table 12.

Test Example 4: Insecticidal test against tobacco cutworms (Spodoptera litura)
A test compound was formulated to an emulsifiable concentrate in accordance with the Formulation Example 1, and the concentrate was diluted with water by 200 times to obtain an emulsion containing 500 ppm of the test compound. On the other hand, 13 g of an artificial diet for tobacco cutworm was prepared in a polyethylene cup having a diameter of 11 cm, and was impregnated with 2 ml of the emulsion obtained above. Ten fourth instar larvae of tobacco cutworms were released therein, and six days later, the mortality was determined (two replications). The damaged level of the artificial diet was also investigated in parallel. The damaged level was judged with the following criteria:
-: Almost no damage was observed.
+: Damage was observed.
++: Damage was heavy and the artificial diet scarcely remained.
The results are shown in Table 13.
