摘要:In experiments conducted at Savannah, Ga., dichlorvos dispensers of montan (lignite) wax installed at a rate of six units per 1000 cubic feet (28 m3) in huts with mud or bamboo walls and with thatched roofs produced kills of caged Anopheles quadrimaculatus (12 hours' exposure) at or above 95% for 5-6 weeks. The doors, windows, and eaves of the huts were open for maximum ventilation. In a non-ventilated plywood hut, a single dispenser gave effective kills for 7 months but in a non-ventilated mud hut the period was 5 months. Air concentrations of dichlorvos in the mud hut were shown to be definitely lower than those in a plywood hut at the same dosage level.
