in synergistically effective amounts.
The present invention also provides methods for the control of insects, acarids or nematodes comprising contacting the insect, acarid or nematode or their food supply, habitat, breeding grounds or their locus with a pesticidally effective amount of mixtures of the compound I with one or more compounds II.
Moreover, the present invention also relates to a method of protecting plants from attack or infestation by insects, acarids or nematodes comprising contacting the plant, or the soil or water in which the plant is growing, with a pesticidally effective amount of a mixture of the compound I with one or more compounds II.
This invention also provides a method for treating, controlling, preventing or protecting an animal against infestation or infection by parasites which comprises orally, topically or parenterally administering or applying to the animals a parasiticidally effective amount of a mixture of the compound I with one or more compounds II.
The invention also provides a process for the preparation of a composition for treating, controlling, preventing or protecting a warm-blooded animal or a fish against infestation or infection by insects, acarids or nematodes which comprises a pesticidally effective amount of a mixture of the compound I with one or more compounds II.
One typical problem arising in the field of pest control lies in the need to reduce the dosage rates of the active ingredient in order to reduce or avoid unfavorable environmental or toxicological effects whilst still allowing effective pest control.
Another problem encountered concerns the need to have available pest control agents which are effective against a broad spectrum of pests.
There also exists the need for pest control agents that combine know-down activity with prolonged control, that is, fast action with long lasting action.
Another difficulty in relation to the use of pesticides is that the repeated and exclusive application of an individual pesticidal compound leads in many cases to a rapid selection of pests which have developed natural or adapted resistance against the active compound in question. Therefore there is a need for pest control agents that help prevent or overcome resistance.
It was therefore an object of the present invention to provide pesticidal mixtures which solve the problems of reducing the dosage rate and/or enhancing the spectrum of activity and/or combining know-down activity with prolonged control and/or to resistance management.
We have found that this object is in part or in whole achieved by the combination of active compounds defined at the outset. Moreover, we have found that simultaneous, that is joint or separate, application of a compound I and one or more compounds II or successive application of a compound I and one or more compounds II allows enhanced control of pests compared to the control rates that are possible with the individual compounds.
Compounds of the formula I, their preparation and their action against insect and acarid pests are known from WO 05/118552.

Suitable antifoaming agents are for example antifoaming agents based on silicon or magnesium stearate.
Powders, materials for spreading and dustable products can be prepared by mixing or concomitantly grinding the active substances with a solid carrier.
Granules, for example coated granules, impregnated granules and homogeneous granules, can be prepared by binding the active compounds to solid carriers. Examples of solid carriers are mineral earths such as silica gels, silicates, talc, kaolin, attaclay, limestone, lime, chalk, bole, loess, clay, dolomite, diatomaceous earth, calcium sulfate, magnesium sulfate, magnesium oxide, ground synthetic materials, fertilizers, such as, for example, ammonium sulfate, ammonium phosphate, ammonium nitrate, ureas, and products of vegetable origin, such as cereal meal, tree bark meal, wood meal and nutshell meal, cellulose powders and other solid carriers.
In general, the formulations comprise from 0.01 to 95% by weight, preferably from 0.1 to 90% by weight, of the active compound(s). In this case, the active compound(s) are employed in a purity of from 90% to 100% by weight, preferably 95% to 100% by weight (according to NMR spectrum).
The compounds of formula I can be used as such, in the form of their formulations or the use forms prepared therefrom, for example in the form of directly sprayable solutions, powders, suspensions or dispersions, emulsions, oil dispersions, pastes, dustable products, materials for spreading, or granules, by means of spraying, atomizing, dusting, spreading or pouring. The use forms depend entirely on the intended purposes; they are intended to ensure in each case the finest possible distribution of the active compound(s) according to the invention.
Aqueous use forms can be prepared from emulsion concentrates, pastes or wettable powders (sprayable powders, oil dispersions) by adding water. To prepare emulsions, pastes or oil dispersions, the substances, as such or dissolved in an oil or solvent, can be homogenized in water by means of a wetter, tackifier, dispersant or emulsifier. However, it is also possible to prepare concentrates composed of active substance, wetter, tackifier, dispersant or emulsifier and, if appropriate, solvent or oil, and such concentrates are suitable for dilution with water.
The active compound concentrations in the ready-to-use preparations can be varied within relatively wide ranges. In general, they are from 0.0001 to 10%, preferably from 0.01 to 1% per weight.
The active compound(s) may also be used successfully in the ultra-low-volume process (ULV), it being possible to apply formulations comprising over 95% by weight of active compound, or even to apply the active compound without additives.

Various types of oils, wetters, adjuvants, herbicides, fungicides, other pesticides, or bactericides may be added to the active ingredients, if appropriate just immediately prior to use (tank mix). These agents usually are admixed with the agents according to the invention in a weight ratio of 1:10 to 10:1.
The compounds of formula I are effective through both contact and ingestion.
According to a preferred embodiment of the invention, the compounds of formula I are employed via soil application. Soil application is especially favorable for use against ants, termites, crickets, or cockroaches.
According to another preferred embodiment of the invention, for use against non crop pests such as ants, termites, wasps, flies, mosquitoes, crickets, locusts, or cockroaches the compounds of formula I are prepared into a bait preparation.
The bait can be a liquid, a solid or a semisolid preparation (e.g. a gel).
Compositions of this invention may also contain other active ingredients, for example fungicides, herbicides, fertilizers such as ammonium nitrate, urea, potash, and superphosphate, phytotoxicants and plant growth regulators and safeners. These additional ingredients may be used sequentially or in combination with the above-described compositions, if appropriate also added only immediately prior to use (tank mix). For example, the plant(s) may be sprayed with a composition of this invention either before or after being treated with other active ingredients.
The mixtures according to the invention can be applied to any and all developmental stages, such as egg, larva, pupa, and adult. The pests may be controlled by contacting the target pest, its food supply, habitat, breeding ground or its locus with a pesticidally effective amount of the inventive mixtures or of compositions comprising the mixtures.
“Locus” means a plant, seed, soil, area, material or environment in which a pest is growing or may grow.
In general, “pesticidally effective amount” means the amount of the inventive mixtures or of compositions comprising the mixtures needed to achieve an observable effect on growth, including the effects of necrosis, death, retardation, prevention, and removal, destruction, or otherwise diminishing the occurrence and activity of the target organism. The pesticidally effective amount can vary for the various mixtures/compositions used in the invention. A pesticidally effective amount of the mixtures/compositions will also vary according to the prevailing conditions such as desired pesticidal effect and duration, weather, target species, locus, mode of application, and the like.
The inventive mixtures or compositions of these mixtures can also be employed for protecting plants from attack or infestation by insects, acarids or nematodes comprising contacting a plant, or soil or water in which the plant is growing.
In the context of the present invention, the term plant refers to an entire plant, a part of the plant or the propagation material of the plant, that is, the seed or the seedling.
Plants which can be treated with the inventive mixtures include all genetically modified plants or transgenic plants, e.g. crops which tolerate the action of herbicides or fungicides or insecticides owing to breeding, including genetic engineering methods, or plants which have modified characteristics in comparison with existing plants, which can be generated for example by traditional breeding methods and/or the generation of mutants, or by recombinant procedures.
Some of the inventive mixtures have systemic action and can therefore be used for the protection of the plant shoot against foliar pests as well as for the treatment of the seed and roots against soil pests. The term seed treatment comprises all suitable seed treatment techniques known in the art, such as seed dressing, seed coating, seed dusting, seed soaking and seed pelleting.
The compounds I and the one or more compound(s) II can be applied simultaneously, that is jointly or separately, or in succession, the sequence, in the case of separate application, generally not having any effect on the result of the control measures.
The compounds I and the one or more compound(s) II are usually applied in a weight ratio of from 500:1 to 1:100, preferably from 20:1 to 1:50, in particular from 5:1 to 1:20. Depending on the desired effect, the application rates of the mixtures according to the invention are from 5 g/ha to 2000 g/ha, preferably from 50 to 1500 g/ha, in particular from 50 to 750 g/ha.
The inventive mixtures are also suitable for the protection of the seed and the seedlings' roots and shoots, preferably the seeds, against soil pests.
Conventional seed treatment formulations include for example flowable concentrates FS, solutions LS, powders for dry treatment DS, water dispersible powders WS or granules for slurry treatment, water soluble powders SS and emulsion ES. Application to the seeds is carried out before sowing, either directly on the seeds. Preferred are FS formulations.
In the treatment of seed, the application rates of the inventive mixture are generally from 0.1 to 10 kg per 100 kg of seed. The separate or joint application of the compounds I and II or of the mixtures of the compounds I and II is carried out by spraying or dusting the seeds, the seedlings, the plants or the soils before or after sowing of the plants or before or after emergence of the plants.
The invention also relates to the propagation products of plants, and especially the seed comprising, that is, coated with and/or containing, a mixture as defined above or a composition containing the mixture of two or more active ingredients or a mixture of two or more compositions each providing one of the active ingredients. The seed comprises the inventive mixtures in an amount of from 0.1 g to 10 kg per 100 kg of seed.
The inventive mixtures are effective through both contact (via soil, glass, wall, bed net, carpet, plant parts or animal parts), and ingestion (bait, or plant part) and through trophallaxis and transfer.
Preferred application methods are into water bodies, via soil, cracks and crevices, pastures, manure piles, sewers, into water, on floor, wall, or by perimeter spray application and bait.
According to another preferred embodiment of the invention, for use against non crop pests such as ants, termites, wasps, flies, mosquitoes, crickets, locusts, or cockroaches the inventive mixtures are prepared into a bait preparation.
The bait can be a liquid, a solid or a semisolid preparation (e.g. a gel). The bait employed in the composition is a product which is sufficiently attractive to incite insects such as ants, termites, wasps, flies, mosquitoes, crickets etc. or cockroaches to eat it. This attractant may be chosen from feeding stimulants or para and/or sex pheromones readily known in the art.
Methods to control infectious diseases transmitted by insects (e.g. malaria, dengue and yellow fever, lymphatic filariasis, and leishmaniasis) with the inventive mixtures and their respective compositions also comprise treating surfaces of huts and houses, air spraying and impregnation of curtains, tents, clothing items, bed nets, tsetse-fly trap or the like.

It was also an object of the present invention to provide mixtures suitable for treating, controlling, preventing and protecting warm-blooded animals, including humans, and fish against infestation and infection by pests. Problems that may be encountered with pest control on or in animals and/or humans are similar to those described at the outset, namely the need for reduced dosage rates, and/or enhanced spectrum of activity and/or combination of know-down activity with prolonged control and/or resistance management.
This invention also provides a method for treating, controlling, preventing and protecting warm-blooded animals, including humans, and fish against infestation and infection by pests of the orders Siphonaptera, Hymenoptera, Hemiptera, Orthoptera, Acarina, Phthiraptera, and Diptera, which comprises orally, topically or parenterally administering or applying to said animals a pesticidally effective amount of mixtures according to the invention.
The invention also provides a process for the preparation of a composition for treating, controlling, preventing or protecting a warm-blooded animal or a fish against infestation or infection by pests of the Siphonaptera, Hymenoptera, Hemiptera, Orthoptera, Acarina, Phthiraptera, and Diptera orders which comprises a pesticidally effective amount of a mixture according to the invention.
The above method is particularly useful for controlling and preventing infestations and infections in warm-blooded animals such as cattle, sheep, swine, camels, deer, horses, poultry, goats, dogs and cats as well as humans.
Infestations in warm-blooded animals and fish including, but not limited to, lice, biting lice, ticks, nasal bots, keds, biting flies, muscoid flies, flies, myiasitic fly larvae, chiggers, gnats, mosquitoes and fleas may be controlled, prevented or eliminated by the mixtures according to the invention.
For oral administration to warm-blooded animals, the mixtures according to the invention may be formulated as animal feeds, animal feed premixes, animal feed concentrates, pills, solutions, pastes, suspensions, drenches, gels, tablets, boluses and capsules. In addition, the mixtures according to the invention may be administered to the animals in their drinking water. For oral administration, the dosage form chosen should provide the animal with 0.01 mg/kg to 100 mg/kg of animal body weight per day of the mixture.
Alternatively, the mixtures according to the invention may be administered to animals parenterally, for example, by intraruminal, intramuscular, intravenous or subcutaneous injection. The mixtures according to the invention may be dispersed or dissolved in a physiologically acceptable carrier for subcutaneous injection. Alternatively, the mixtures according to the invention may be formulated into an implant for subcutaneous administration. In addition the mixtures according to the invention may be transdermally administered to animals. For parenteral administration, the dosage form chosen should provide the animal with 0.01 mg/kg to 100 mg/kg of animal body weight per day of the mixture.
The mixtures according to the invention may also be applied topically to the animals in the form of dips, dusts, powders, collars, medallions, sprays, spot-on and pour-on formulations. For topical application, dips and sprays usually contain 0.5 ppm to 5,000 ppm and preferably 1 ppm to 3,000 ppm of the inventive compounds. In addition, the mixtures according to the invention may be formulated as ear tags for animals, particularly quadrupeds such as cattle and sheep.
The pesticidal action of the compounds and the mixtures can be demonstrated by the experiments below:
Southern armyworm (Spodoptera eridania), 2nd instar larvae
The active compounds are formulated for testing the activity against insects and arachnids as a 10.000 ppm solution in a mixture of 35% acetone and water, which is diluted with water, if needed.
A Sieva lima bean leaf expanded to 7-8 cm in length is dipped in the test solution with agitation for 3 seconds and allowed to dry in a hood. The leaf is then placed in a 100×10 mm petri dish containing a damp filter paper on the bottom and ten 2nd instar caterpillars. At 5 days, observations are made of mortality, reduced feeding, or any interference with normal molting.
Green Peach Aphid (Myzus persicae)
The active compounds are formulated in 50:50 acetone:water and 100 ppm Kinetic™ surfactant.
Pepper plants in the 2nd leaf-pair stage (variety ‘California Wonder’) are infested with approximately 40 laboratory-reared aphids by placing infested leaf sections on top of the test plants. The leaf sections are removed after 24 hr. The leaves of the intact plants are dipped into gradient solutions of the test compound and allowed to dry. Test plants are maintained under fluorescent light (24 hour photoperiod) at about 25° C. and 20-40% relative humidity. Aphid mortality on the treated plants, relative to mortality on check plants, is determined after 5 days.
Activity Against Tobacco Budworm (Heliothis virescens)
Two-leaf cotton plants are utilized for bioassays. Excised plant leaves are dipped into 1:1 acetone/water dilutions of the active compounds. After the leaves have dried, they are individually placed onto water-moistened filter paper on the bottoms of Petri dishes. Each dish is infested with 5-7 larvae and covered with a lid. Each treatment dilution is replicated 4 times. Test dishes are held at approximately 27° C. and 60% humidity. Numbers of live and morbid larvae are assessed in each dish at 5 days after treatment application, and percent mortality is calculated.
Activity against Argentine ant, harvester ant, acrobat ant, carpenter ant, fire ant, house fly, stable fly, flesh fly, yellow-fever mosquito, house mosquito, malaria mosquito, German cockroach, cat flea, and brown dog tick via glass contact
Glass vials (20 ml scintillation vials) are treated with 0.5 ml of a solution of active ingredient in acetone. Each vial is rolled uncapped for ca. 10 minutes to allow the a.i. to completely coat the vial and to allow for full drying of the acetone. Insects or ticks are placed into each vial. The vials are kept at 22° C. and are observed for treatment effects at various time intervals.
To determine if an insecticidal mixture is synergistic, Limpel's formula is used:
E=X+Y−XY/100
E=Expected % mortality of the mixture
X=% mortality of compound X, as measured independently
Y=% mortality of compound Y, as measured independently
Synergism is evident if the % observed mortality for the mixture is greater than the % expected mortality.
The test results show that the mixtures according to the invention show a considerable enhanced activity demonstrating synergism compared to the calculated sum of the single activities.
