Abstract
A composition for controlling harmful insects and representatives of the order Acarina, containing as biologically active components a) a substance that modifies the behavior of the pests and b) at least one pesticidally active compound, wherein the biologically active components are contained in a flowable or viscous non-hardening matrix that is resistant to water and weather, is protected against light and is suitable for distribution in the form of droplets or droplet-like units or spots that adhere to a substrate, by means of which matrix the behavior-modifying substance is protected against UV radiation and from which it is slowly released in a biologically effective amount over a prolonged period, and wherein the pesticidally active compound can be taken up in a pesticidally effective amount from the surface of the droplets or droplet-like units or spots by the pests to be controlled; as well as a method of controlling the said pests, especially plant-destructive insects.
