昆虫生长调节剂的研究现状及其在白蚁防治中的应用进展

Research status of insect growth regulators and their application in termite control

白蚁是一类原始的社会性昆虫,严重危害房屋建筑、水库堤坝和林木资源等,造成巨大的经济损失。近年来,长效、低毒和环保的毒饵诱杀技术用于白蚁防治已成为研究热点,昆虫生长调节剂作为一种新型白蚁生物防治杀虫剂,其对白蚁的慢性毒性、非驱避性以及在白蚁体内的积累作用使其成为一类优秀的白蚁防治剂。本文综述了昆虫生长调节剂的种类和作用特点及其在白蚁防治中的应用前景。

Termites are a primitive type of social insects,widely distribute in the world,and seriously endanger housing,dams and trees,causing huge economic losses. Control researches focus on the bait trapping technology with long-acting,low toxicity,environmental protection in recent years. Insect growth regulators as new insecticides used in termite control,the characteristics of termite toxicity,non-avoidance and accumulation in the termite body make thema class of excellent termite control agent. In this paper,the species and function characteristics of insect growth regulator are introduced. The application prospects and development direction in termite control are also summarized.
