MODE OF ACTIONS BY
WHICH INSECTS ARE CONTROLLED: |
1. Plugging of
spiracles.
2. Laceration of chitin in the bellows of joints.
3. Severance of the muscles of the tracheole valve.
4. Perforations of the walls of the trachea and
tracheoles.
5. Mandibular damage by abrasion.
6. Oesophageal laceration.
7. Absorption of wax, allowing dehydration.
8. Perforations in the wall of digestive system.
9. Severance of the constrictive muscles of the
malphigian system.
10. Starvation of the larvae. |
