“…Conventional cockroach control programs have used spray formulations containing carbamates, OPs, organochlorines and pyrethroids. Consequently, high levels of resistance to these insecticides have been documented in many field populations [ 49 , 50 , 51 , 52 , 53 , 54 , 55 ].…”

The increased urbanization of a growing global population makes imperative the development of sustainable integrated pest management (IPM) strategies for urban pest control. This emphasizes pests that are closely associated with the health and wellbeing of humans and domesticated animals. Concurrently there are regulatory requirements enforced to minimize inadvertent exposures to insecticides in the urban environment. Development of insecticide resistance management (IRM) strategies in urban ecosystems involves understanding the status and mechanisms of insecticide resistance and reducing insecticide selection pressure by combining multiple chemical and non-chemical approaches. In this review, we will focus on the commonly used insecticides and molecular and physiological mechanisms underlying insecticide resistance in six major urban insect pests: house fly, German cockroach, mosquitoes, red flour beetle, bed bugs and head louse. We will also discuss several strategies that may prove promising for future urban IPM programs.

“…The German cockroach, Blattella germanica (L.), is very difÞcult to control because of chemical insecticide resistance (Limoee et al 2007, Chang et al 2010. It is, therefore, important to develop effective, stable, environmentally friendly, and low-cost biopesticides to reduce populations of this household pest.…”

Pseudomonas reactans, a Bacterial Strain Isolated From the Intestinal Flora ofBlattella germanica With Anti-Beauveria bassianaActivity

Anti-Beauveria bassiana activity of aqueous fecal extracts from conventional German cockroaches [Blattella germanica (L.)] was detected, but was not detected in samples from germ-free German cockroaches. Subsequently, bacterial strain BGI-14 was isolated from the gut of conventional German cockroaches and was identified as Pseudomonas reactans based on 16S rDNA sequence. The strain BGI-14 not only inhibited the germination of conidia, but also inhibited the growth of B. bassiana hyphae. Further studies demonstrated that B. bassiana infections in German cockroaches orally treated with the extracts of BGI-14 fermentation were significantly weakened. Compared with the control group, the cumulative mortality rate of treatment group was reduced by 10.3% at 20 d postinoculation. These studies imply that intestinal flora with anti-B. bassiana activity might contribute to resistance of infection by entomopathogenic fungi.

“…Cockroaches are generally controlled by conventional insecticides including organophosphorus, carbamate and pyrethroids (Rust et al 1993). However, repeated use of these insecticides has resulted in the development of resistance (Bang et al1993;Dong et al 1998;Chang et al 2010) and can lead to human health problems (Phillips et al, 2010). Further, the indiscriminate use of neurotoxic insecticides causes various environmental aspects and toxic effects to non-target organisms (Long 2000).…”
