[The insecticidal activity of the preparation K-othrin in relation to different species of arthropods]

A high insecticidal activity of K-otrin (flow), a preparation containing 2.5% of deltametrin, towards various arthropods, was revealed in laboratory experiments and in field trials. The effective doses were determined: 0.01-0.1 g/m2. Residual effects of the insecticide on the treated surfaces persist for 3 months and longer. Toxicologic studies revealed the possibility of using K-otrin for medical disinfection. The preparation is permitted for use by the Ministry of Health.
