Active agent combinations with insecticidal and acaricidal properties
View Patent ↗The invention relates to novel active compound combinations having very good insecticidal and acaricidal properties and containing (a) cyclic ketoenols having the formula in which the groups W, X, Y, Z, A, B, D, AND G have the meanings given in the disclosure, and (b) the active compounds (1) to (29) listed in the disclosure.
1. A composition comprising a mixture of synergistically effective amounts of
(1) a compound of the formula (Ia)
in which W is H, X is CH 3 , Y is 5-CH 3 , Z is H, R is OCH 3 , and G is CO 2 —C 2 H 5 , and
(2) bifenazate.
2. A composition according to claim 1 , wherein the ratio of the compound of formula (Ia) to bifenazate is from 5:1 to 1:20.
3. A composition according to claim 1 , wherein the ratio of the compound of formula (Ia) to bifenazate is from 1:1 to 1:10.
4. A composition according to claim 1 , further comprising at least one solvent or diluent, emulsifier, dispersant and/or binder or fixative, water repellent, desiccants and UV stabilizes, or colorants and pigments.
5. A composition according to claim 1 , further comprising at least one other active compound.
6. A composition according to claim 5 , wherein the active compound is an insecticide, attractant, sterilant, bactericide, acaricide, nematicide, fungicide, growth regulation substance or herbicide.
7. A method for controlling insect and/or acarid comprising applying an effective amount of a composition according to claim 1 to said insect and/or acarid and/or its habitat.
8. A method according to claim 7 , wherein the composition is applied to a plant, plant parts, or seed.
9. A process for preparing an insecticidal and acaricidal composition comprising mixing a composition according to claim 1 with extenders and/or surfactants.
10. A method for protecting an object which comes into contact with saltwater or brackish water against fouling comprising allowing an effective amount of a composition according to claim 1 to act on said object.
11. A method according to claim 10 , wherein the object is a hull, screen, net, building, mooring, or signalling system.
