An insecticide is a pesticide used against insects in all development forms. They include ovicides and larvicides used against the eggs and larvae of insects. Insecticides are widely used in agriculture, household and even in medicine. Insecticides are very widely used in agriculture, as well as in people's dwellings and workplaces. The use of insecticides is one of the major factors behind the increase in agricultural productivity in the 20th century. Because insecticides have the potential to significantly alter ecosystems and may be concentrated through the food chain, it is necessary to balance agricultural needs with safety concerns when using them.
Classes of agricultural insecticides
The classification of insecticides is done in several different ways:
- The systematic insecticides which are incorporated into the plants and the insects take up the insecticide while feeding on the plants. The contact insecticides which take action when they are brought into direct contact with the insect by aerosol distribution.
- The natural insecticides which are made from plants as defence against insects like nicotine and pyrethrum. In contrast to the inorganic insecticides like arsenates copper- and fluorine compounds, which are now seldom used and the organic insecticides which is now the biggest group.
- The point of action is also a good way of sorting the insecticides. The neurotocic insecticides, the acetylcholinesterase blocking and moulting blockers. The neurotoxic and coleterinas blocker are difficult because they are also toxic for other organisms. Where as the skinning blockers and the other insecticides which take action only in metabolism of insects are less likely to be highly toxic on mammals.
- The contribution as aerosol (liquid or solid) is mostly used for contact insecticides, as solid for the uptake by the plant roots is preferred for systematic insecticides and fumigation with phosphine or hydrogen cyanide is mostly used for sensitive products after the harvest.
Classes of insecticides, a short history
A series of classes of insecticides have existed, as time progressed one class has largely replaced the one before it. These trends in the classes of compounds in some ways has mirrored the development of chemical warfare agents. More on [ Insecticide ]
