Non-aqueous pesticidal macrolide compositions are provided which comprise (A) a major amount of at least one non-aqueous solvent selected from a glycol ether and a lactimide; (B) a minor amount of a mixture of (i) at least one pesticide selected from abamectin and emamectin benzoate, and (ii) optionally, at least one surfactant. In one embodiment, the at least one pesticide selected from abamectin and emamectin benzoate is present in the composition in an amount of at least 7% by weight. In another embodiment, the compositions of the invention are chemically stable. The compositions of the invention can be used directly as a concentrate for treating or reducing tree pest infestations by trunk injection or with dilution in water for control of pests in crops of useful plants.

Pesticidal composition

There is provided by the present invention an injection system for use in injecting a liquid into a tree, the system comprising: (A) a liquid supply assembly () comprising a liquid supply inlet () for providing the liquid to the assembly at ambient pressure, an electric pump () for pressurizing and discharging the liquid from the assembly at a first pressure above ambient pressure through a liquid supply outlet (), a pressure switch () connected to the supply outlet and in electrical communication with the pump for selectively actuating the pump when the pressure of the liquid supply outlet falls below said first pressure.

Tree injection system and methods

Composition for controlling insects and representatives of the order Acarina, which comprises a combination of variable amounts of one or more compounds of the formula in which A method of controlling pests, a process for the preparation of the composition, its use and plant propagation material treated with it, and the use of the compound of the formula (A) for the preparation of the composition, are described.
