RODRIGUEZ, Daisy et al. Evaluation of effectiveness of three new use insecticides in Cuban poultry for the control of Alphitobius diaperinus under laboratory conditions. Rev Salud Anim. [online]. 2013, vol.35, n.3, pp. 197-200. ISSN 0253-570X.

The objective of this study was evaluate the effectiveness of three new use insecticides for Cuban poultry in order to control Alphitobius diaperinus, which is an intermediate host of helminths affecting birds. The study was done at Poultry Diagnosis and Research Laboratory belonging to Poultry Research Institute. Five hundred individuals were employed and 5 treatments were designed: Clorpiriphos, Diclorvos, Lambda Cihalothrine and Cipermethrine (as positive control) and a water treated control group. Insects were introduced in each solution during 1 minute. At 24 and 48 hours after applying the treatments, samplings were carried out in order to determine insect mortality. The tree insecticides caused mortality in 100 % of the insects treated. Cipermethrine had similar behaviour.
