PRESENTATION OVERVIEW

PESTICIDES

INSECTICIDESINSECTICIDESINSECTICIDE

Most chemical insecticides act by poisoning the nervous system

Difficult to kill target insects pests

May harm other species like non pest insects, wild life, pets & human

Some insecticides harm water quality or affect organisms in other ways

TypesTypes

Types ( Cont..)Types ( Cont..)Systemic insecticides are absorbed by plant tissues; insects are poisoned when they feed on the sap (liquid)

Fumigants are insecticidal gases. They are used by exterminators to treat cockroaches, bedbugs, beetles in grain bins and grubs in soil.

Systemic insecticides are absorbed by plant tissues; insects are poisoned when they feed on the sap.

Kill only target pests

Harm no other species

Break down quickly

Not cause genetic resistance

Be more cost-effective than doing nothing

Chemical PesticidesGreat risk to human & environment

Organophosphate Pesticides

Organochlorine Pesticides

Carbamate Pesticides

Pyrethroid Pesticides 

Biopesticidescan be developed using fungi, bacteria and other organically present substances

Microbial pesticides 

Plant Incorporated Protectants (PIP’s)

Biochemical pesticides

TypesTypes (Cont..) (Cont..)•AlgicidesControl algae in lakes, canals, swimming pools, water tanks, and other sites.•Antifouling agentsKill or repel organisms that attach to underwater surfaces, such as boat bottoms.•AntimicrobialsKill microorganisms (such as bacteria and viruses).•AttractantsAttract pests (for example, to lure an insect or rodent to a trap). (However, food is not considered a pesticide when used as an attractant.)•BiopesticidesBiopesticides are certain types of pesticides derived from such natural materials as animals, plants, bacteria, and certain minerals.

Types (Cont..)Types (Cont..)•BiocidesKill microorganisms.•Disinfectants and sanitizersKill or inactivate disease-producing microorganisms on inanimate objects.•FungicidesKill fungi (including blights, mildews, molds, and rusts).•FumigantsProduce gas or vapor intended to destroy pests in buildings or soil.•Herbicides•Kill weeds and other plants that grow where they are not wanted.•InsecticidesKill insects and other arthropods.

EFFECTSEFFECTS• Pesticides destroy property, cause nuisance, spread disease or are vectors for disease. Although there are human benefits to the use of pesticides, some also have drawbacks, such as potential toxicity to humans and other animals

• Nearly all insecticides have the potential to significantly alter ecosystems; many are toxic to humans; and others are concentrated in the food chain.

DENGUEDengue is transmitted by the bite of an Aedes mosquito infected with any one of the four dengue viruses. It occurs in tropical and sub-tropical areas of the world. Symptoms appear 3—14 days after the infective bite. Dengue fever is a febrile illness that affects infants, young children and adults.
