[Viewed 448 times]

A bait composition for ingestion by a pest comprising a poison for killing the pest and at least one of (preferably at least two of): an insect growth regulator (IGR); a larvicide; or an insecticide, for minimising or controlling the propagation of an insect pest from the pest’s carcass. The poison may be a rodenticide and the insect pest may be flies. The IGR may be one or more of: Methoprene; hydroprene; diflubenzuron; tefenozide; RH 5849; pyriproxyfen; chromafenozide; methoxydenozide; diofenolan; fuenozide; lufenuron; Egyptian essential oils; azadirachtin; an azasteroid for inhibiting sterol uptake, transport, and/or use in a larva; or extracts of: celery, fenugreek, mustard, rosemary, anise, lettuce, neem, Persian lilac, or chinaberry tree. The larvicide may be one or more of: a DOPA decarboxylase inhibitor; methyl DOPA; benserazide; carbi-DOPA; methyl tyrosine; or a pathogenic fungus. The IGR/larvicide/insecticide may be encapsulated in a biodegradable material. The poison may include one or more of: an anticoagulant; ergocalciferol (vitamin D2); or cholecalciferol (vitamin D3) and the bait may be a natural bait composition. The amount of IGR/insecticide/larvicide may be tailored according to: the pest the bait is intended for; the insect pest expected; and the mass of the bait. The bait may be in the form of solid body e.g. pellets, grain, blocks, and the IGR/insecticide/larvicide may be distributed homogenously throughout the solid body in the amount of 0.01-50 mg. The bait may be in the form of a liquid or foam with an IGR/insecticide/larvicide concentration of at least 0.1 mg per litre. Also disclosed is a container comprising the bait composition. Also disclosed is the use of the bait composition for control of a pest and concurrent/pre-emptive pest control of an insect pest propagating from the pest’s carcass. Also disclosed is a method of pest control for an animal pest and an insect pest propagating from the carcass of the pest comprising deploying the bait. The method may include monitoring/estimating the number of insect pests present when the bait is deployed and comparing this with the number of insect pests 3-10 days later.
