Development of insecticides was in close connection to many findings in chemistry and rapid industrial growth of certain countries like Germany, England and USA in the last decades of 19th and first decades of 20th century.
One of the most important and famous insecticide, DDT, was introduced in 1942. Pyrethroids, carbamates and organophosphates were developed in 1950s and 1960s, and also neonicotinoids in the last decade of the 20th century.
Depending on the mode of action insecticides can be grouped as contact (toxic at the place of contact), digestive (active upon arrival into digestive tract of the insect), inhalational (active with its gaseous phase upon breathing in), repellent (repel certain pests), growth and development regulators (affect the metabolism of the plant by advancing, slowing or modifying certain physiological processes).
Insecticides can also be those for treatment through soil, for winter treatment of fruit trees and vine, insecticides for treatment of seeds, plantations and seed material, for foliar treatment of plants, for control of poisonous insecticides and mites in warehouses, for treatment of wood logs and wood materials.
Subgroups developed within this group such as acaricides (control of mites), limacides or molluscicides (control of snails), rodenticides (control of rodents) as well as “aficides” for killing lice.
When using insecticides, like any other pesticides, it is of great importance to adjust the product to its mechanism of action so that there would not come to the resistance to the product. It is therefore very important to be acquainted with the chemical group the product belongs to and their proper alternations.
