Popis:	Compounds that selectively disrupt the normal growth and development processes of insects offer a new approach to insect control with minimal adverse environmental interactions. Studies with several insect juvenile hormone analogs have shown that these compounds are highly biodegradable in most animal species and that residues are generally rapidly excreted from the body. Results of preliminary studies in the author's laboratory with the chitin synthesis inhibitor, diflubenzuron, indicate that this compound is readily metabolized by cattle and sheep but much less so by the stable fly and housefly. Residues are not retained within tissues of the treated ruminants to any appreciable extent
