- 2. A chemical compound, as recited in claim 1, where X=halide.
- 3. A compound, as recited in claim 1, having the formula: ##STR8##
- 4. A compound, as recited in claim 1, having the formula: ##STR9##
- 5. A chemical compound, as recited in claim 2, wherein X is iodide.
- 6. A chemical compound, as recited in claim 5, wherein the halo-alkyl substituent group occupies the paraposition relative to the choline carbonate substituent group.
- 7. In a method for controlling an insect population of the type wherein an acetylcholinesterase inhibitor is administered to said insects or larva thereof in an insecticidally-effective amount, the improvement comprising employing a compound of claim 1 as the acetylcholinesterase inhibitor.
- 8. In a method for controlling an insect population of the type wherein an acetylcholinesterase inhibitor is administered to said insects or larva thereof in an insecticidally-effective amount, the improvement comprising employing a compound of claim 2 as the acetylcholinesterase inhibitor.
- 9. In a method for controlling an insect population of the type wherein an acetylcholinesterase inhibitor is administered to said insects or larva thereof in an insecticidally-effective amount, the improvement comprising employing a compound of claim 3 as the acetylcholinesterase inhibitor.
- 10. In a method for controlling an insect population of the type wherein an acetylcholinesterase inhibitor is administered to said insects or larva thereof in an insecticidally-effective amount, the improvement comprising employing a compound of claim 4 as the acetylcholinesterase inhibitor.
- 11. In a method for controlling an insect population of the type wherein an acetylcholinesterase inhibitor is administered to said insects or larva thereof in an insecticidally-effective amount, the improvement comprising employing a compound of claim 5 as the acetylcholinesterase inhibitor.
- 12. In a method for controlling an insect population of the type wherein an acetylcholinesterase inhibitor is administered to said insects or larva thereof in an insecticidally-effective amount, the improvement comprising employing a compound of claim 6 as the acetylcholinesterase inhibitor.
- 13. The method of claim 7, wherein the acetylcholinesterase inhibitor comprises the compound of claim 1 in aqueous solution.
- 14. The method of claim 7, wherein the acetylcholinesterase inhibitor comprises the compound of claim 2 in aqueous solution.
- 15. The method of claim 7, wherein the acetylcholinesterase inhibitor comprises the compound of claim 3 in aqueous solution.
- 16. The method of claim 7, wherein the acetylcholinesterase inhibitor comprises the compound of claim 4 in aqueous solution.
- 17. The method of claim 13, wherein the inhibitor is administered to the insects or larva thereof by spraying.
- 18. The method of claim 14, wherein the inhibitor is administered to the insects or larva thereof by spraying.
- 19. The method of claim 15, wherein the inhibitor is administered to the insects or larva thereof by spraying.
- 20. The method of claim 16, wherein the inhibitor is administered to the insects or larva thereof by spraying.
