Abstract

To enhance the control efficacy against cockroaches in dwelling space, repellent ("Push") was set down on one comer and a poison bait including attractant ("Pull") was on the opposite side. And we tested the control efficacy of Push-Pull strategy by behavior-stimuli of cockroaches. In a mini-field test, German cockroach males primarily chose shelters nearest to the attractant-treated surfaces and farthest from the repellent-treated surfaces. The consumption of food or bait was also highest from food nearest to the preferred shelters by push-pull effect. We evaluated the push-pull insecticidal efficacies of five essential oils belong to Citrus plant, namely, grapefruit, lemon, lime, orange, and petitgrain. The combined push-pull treatments appeared to be faster and higher insecticidal effects than single (pull) treatment, and the repellent efficacy of Citrus oils was in the order of grapefruit > lemon > lime > orange > petitgrain. Therefore, we propose the effective control of the german cockroach using Citrus oils as repellents and push-pull method into a limited area.

제한된 주거공간에서 바퀴의 방제효과를 높이기 위하여 한쪽에 기피성분(push)을 처리하고 반대쪽에 일반적인 유인성분(pull)이 포함된 독먹이제(bait)를 처리함으로서 행동자극에 의한 기피-유인 방제효과를 검증하였다. 먼저 상형장치를 이용한 mini-field 시험에서, 바퀴는 기피제형이 처리된 장소로부터 벗어나서 유인 먹이가 처리된 곳으로 몰려들었으며, 처리된 유인먹이와 독먹이의 소비량은 기피-유인 효과에 의해 밀집된 곳의 먹이에서 높게 나타났다. 따라서 바퀴에 대하여 기피 효과가 우수한 식물정유를 선별 적용함으로서 살충효과를 높이기 위하여 Citrus 속의 grapefruit, lemon, lime, orange, 그리고 petitgrain 오일에 대한 기피-유인 살충효과를 평가하였다. 동시 처리된 기피-유인 처리는 유인 독먹이만 처리된 대조구에 비해 더 빠르고 높은 살충효과를 나타냈으며, Citrus 속 오일의 기피에 의한 살충효과는 grapefruit > lemon > lime > orange > petitgrain 오일 순으로 나타났다. 따라서 본 실험은 제한된 공간에서 기피제로서 Citrus속 오일과 기피-유인 방법을 이용하는 효율적인 방제법을 제시한다.
