What 3 chemical compounds (not categorized as insecticides) are regulated under federal and
nation laws?
1) Defoliants
2) Dessiccants
three) Growth Regulators
Note: 2-4D is a boom regulator for flowers.
Are fertilizers and meals components (used to alter plant and animal increase) regulated in
Idaho?
No fertilizers and food components aren't regulated as Pesticides in ID
Defoliants
Chemicals that cause leaves or foliage to drop from plant.
Dessiccants
Chemicals that sell the drying or loss of moisture in plant life.
Growth Regulators
Substances (other than fertilizer or meals) that regulate the boom development of a plant or
animal.
Adjuvants
,Substances delivered to pesticide formulations and tank combinations to boom protection or
effectiveness.
Fertilizers and Food Additives
Regulate the boom of plants or animals but are NOT REGULATED as pesticides in Idaho.
Are adjuvants regulated as pesticides in Idaho?
Yes, Idaho expands the federal definition of insecticides to include Adjuvants so they may be
regulated as pesticides in Idaho.
Mode of Action
A useful or anatomical exchange on the mobile stage, attributable to a pest being exposed to a
pesticide.
Give an example of a non selective pesticide.
Fumigants are generally non selective and kill a wide type of pests after publicity. (Bug Bombs
are Fumigants)
Give an example of a selective pesticide.
Ovicides are selective and kill best the the eggs of certain insects.
In flora, amino pyralid herbicides are selective and kill wide leaves however no longer grasses.
Other herbicides kill grasses however now not broadleaves.
What essential thing can exchange or effect the mode of movement of a pesticide?
Pesticide MOBILITY can range upon touch with the host plant or insect.
Name four examples of Mode of Action
1) Systemic insecticides
2) Contact insecticides
3) Stomach poisons
4) Inhalation poisons
Systemic Pesticide (Plant)
, Mode of movement that requires the pesticide to be absorbed thru the foliage or roots of a plant
and then translocated via the vascular system to kill it.
Example: (Bayer Tree and Shrub is watered into tree and absorbed systemically.)
Systemic Pesticide (Livestock)
Mode of action that requires the pesticide to be fed or injected into livestock to manipulate
pests.
Example: Organophosphates
Contact Pesticide
Mode of movement that calls for the pesticide to come into contact with the goal pest with a
view to be effective.
Example: Diatomaceouse Earth ought to come into contact with an insect to kill it robotically.
Stomach Poisons
Mode of movement that requires the pest to ingest the pesticide for you to be powerful.
Example: Rodent Poison
Inhalation Poison
Mode of action that requires the pest to absorb the pesticide thru their respiratory machine in
order to be powerful.
Example: ?
Who is in rate of regulating the manufacturing, sale, use, storage, and disposal of insecticides?
EPA= environmental safety act (Federal)
ISDA= Idaho State Department of Agriculture
(State)
FIFRA
Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act
