Abstract

A composition for controlling a building-inhabiting pest, the composition including, as an active component, at least one kind of an amide derivative represented by the following Formula (1) in which, Q represents an unsubstituted phenyl group or a phenyl group substituted at the 2-, 3- or 4-position with one fluorine atom, R represents a hydrogen atom or a methyl group, and each of Y 1 and Y 2 independently represents a bromine atom, an iodine atom, or a trifluoromethyl group, and a method for controlling a building-inhabiting pest, the method including treating a space in a building with the composition.

Claims (21)

1. A method for controlling an etofenprox-resistant building-inhabiting pest, the method comprising:

treating a space in a building with a composition for controlling an etofenprox-resistant building-inhabiting pest, the composition containing, as an active component, at least an amide derivative represented by the following Formula (1), in a form of an aerosol agent of which a total amount is sprayed at one time or a smoking agent, in an amount of from 5 to 100 mg per volume (m 3 ) in the building in terms of an amount of the amide derivative represented by the following Formula (1):

wherein, in Formula (1), Q represents an unsubstituted phenyl group or a phenyl group substituted at the 2-, 3- or 4-position with one fluorine atom, R represents a hydrogen atom or a methyl group, and each of Y 1 and Y2 independently represents a bromine atom, an iodine atom, or a trifluoromethyl group.

2. The method for controlling an etofenprox-resistant building-inhabiting pest according to claim 1 , wherein, in Formula (1), Y 1 represents a trifluoromethyl group, and Y 2 represents a bromine atom or an iodine atom.

3. The method for controlling an etofenprox-resistant building-inhabiting pest according to claim 2 , wherein the amide derivative represented by Formula (1) is 2-fluoro-3-(N-methylbenzamide)-N-(2-bromo-6-trifluoromethyl-4-(heptafluoropropane-2-yl)phenyl)benzamide.

4. The method for controlling an etofenprox-resistant building-inhabiting pest according to claim 1 , wherein the etofenprox-resistant building-inhabiting pest to be controlled is at least one selected from the group consisting of smoky brown cockroach, German cockroach, bed bug, European house dust mite, and common grain mite.

5. The method for controlling an etofenprox-resistant building-inhabiting pest according to claim 1 , wherein the composition for controlling an etofenprox-resistant building-inhabiting pest is the aerosol agent of which a total amount is sprayed at one time, and spray treatment with the aerosol agent is performed on the space in the building.

6. The method for controlling an etofenprox-resistant building-inhabiting pest according to claim 1 , wherein the composition for controlling an etofenprox-resistant building-inhabiting pest is the smoking agent, and smoking treatment with the smoking agent is performed on the space in the building.

7. A composition for controlling an etofenprox-resistant building-inhabiting pest, the composition comprising, as an active component, at least an amide derivative represented by the following Formula (1):

wherein, in Formula (1), Q represents an unsubstituted phenyl group or a phenyl group substituted at the 2-, 3- or 4-position with one fluorine atom, R represents a hydrogen atom or a methyl group, and each of Y 1 and Y 2 independently represents a bromine atom, an iodine atom, or a trifluoromethyl group,

wherein a treatment amount of the composition is from 5 to 100 mg per volume (m 3 ) in a space of a building in terms of an amount of the amide derivative represented by Formula (1),

wherein the composition for controlling an etofenprox-resistant building-inhabiting pest is an aerosol agent of which a total amount is sprayed at one time, or a smoking agent, and

wherein the etofenprox-resistant building-inhabiting pest to be controlled is at least one selected from the group consisting of smoky brown cockroach, German cockroach, bed bug, European house dust mite, and common grain mite.

8. The composition for controlling an etofenprox-resistant building-inhabiting pest according to claim 7 , wherein in Formula (1), Y 1 represents a trifluoromethyl group, and Y 2 represents a bromine atom or an iodine atom.

9. The composition for controlling an etofenprox-resistant building-inhabiting pest according to claim 8 , wherein the amide derivative represented by Formula (1) is 2-fluoro-3-(N-methylbenzamide)-N-(2-bromo-6-trifluoromethyl-4-(heptafluoropropane-2-yl)phenyl)benzamide.

10. The method for controlling an etofenprox-resistant building-inhabiting pest according to claim 1 , wherein the treating the space in the building with the composition for controlling an etofenprox-resistant building-inhabiting pest comprises heating the composition for controlling an etofenprox-resistant building-inhabiting pest.

11. The method for controlling an etofenprox-resistant building-inhabiting pest according to claim 1 , wherein the space in the building treated with the composition includes the etofenprox-resistant building-inhabiting pest.

12. The method for controlling an etofenprox-resistant building-inhabiting pest according to claim 1 , the method further comprising contacting the etofenprox-resistant building-inhabiting pest with the composition in the space in the building.

13. The method for controlling an etofenprox-resistant building-inhabiting pest according to claim 1 , the method further comprising:

contacting the etofenprox-resistant building-inhabiting pest with the composition in the space in the building; and

bringing the composition contacted with the etofenprox-resistant building-inhabiting pest to a nest of the etofenprox-resistant building-inhabiting pest to control other etofenprox-resistant building-inhabiting pest in the nest.
