Abstract:In this study, the mortality of diatom earth from Turkey coded ACN-1 against the German cockroach (Blattella gemanica L. Blattodea: Ectobiidae) adults on concrete, ceramic and parquet surfaces was investigated. Biological tests were carried out on three different surfaces against the adults of B. germanica at doses of 2.5, 5, 10 and 20 g/m2 diatom earth coded ACN-1 for 6 days. In all surface applications of ACN-1 diatomaceous earth, exposure time and doses caused significant effect on mortality rates of B. ger… Show more
