Repellent or Aversive Chemicals in Sheep Neck Collars Did Not Deter Coyote Attacks
Since 1974 the Fish and Wildlife Service has studied a "toxic collar" to poison coyotes that attack collared sheep and goats. The collar patent (McBride 1974) indicates that the same collar could deliver chemicals to repel coyotes, thus saving both the coyote and the livestock. This report summarizes our experience with nonlethal tests of collars. During collar tests with 10 different toxicants...
متن کاملDetermining Airborne Concentrations of Spatial Repellent Chemicals in Mosquito Behavior Assay Systems
BACKGROUND Mosquito behavior assays have been used to evaluate the efficacy of vector control interventions to include spatial repellents (SR). Current analytical methods are not optimized to determine short duration concentrations of SR active ingredients (AI) in air spaces during entomological evaluations. The aim of this study was to expand on our previous research to further validate a nove...
متن کاملrepellent activity and fumigant toxicity of 18 essential oil on indian meal moth, plodia interpunctella
indian meal moth, plodia interpunctella hubner is one of the most important stored-product insects that are controlled by fumigants. however, the use of plant essential oils and their constituents may have the advantage over conventional fumigants in terms of low mammalian toxicity and can be used as alternatives to conventional fumigants. therefore, in this research, repellent activity of 18 p...
متن کاملLong-term Health Effects of Exposure to Naphthalene Background and status of Naphthalene as a Toxic Air Contaminant and Potential Carcinogen
Naphthalene (CAS Registry Number: 91-20-3) is a natural constituent of coal tar, comprising approximately 11% of that material by weight (HSDB, 2003). It is present in gasoline and diesel fuels. All pesticide registrations of naphthalene, including use as a moth repellent, were cancelled in California in 1991 due to data gap inadequacies. However, naphthalene is included on a list of "inert" or...
