Micronized Insecticidal Dusts for Aircraft Disinsectization

Journal of Economic Entomology, 1963
The effectiveness of micronized 85% insecticidal dusts was evaluated against free-flying Japanese beetles, Popillia japonica Newman, in 1,000-cu.-ft. test chambers and in aircraft. Freshly applied deposits from approximately 2 g. (0.07 oz.) actual DDT per 1,000 cu. ft. gave 100% mortality of beetles exposed in aircraft for 1 hour.

Analysis and implications of aircraft disinsectants

Science of The Total Environment, 2002
Aircraft disinsection is required by various countries. In-flight spraying with a 2% phenothrin aerosol exposes passengers and crew directly. Residual spaying uses a permethrin emulsions in the absence of passengers and crew and results in dermal and oral exposures.

Disinsectization of Aircraft by Residual Deposits of Insecticides

The American Journal of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene, 1954
Summary Field tests with free-flying house flies and mosquitoes in passenger aircraft that were being used on routine schedules have shown that lindane residues of 200 mg. per sq. ft. will satisfactorily disinsect baggage compartments for five weeks with a single application.

Pesticide illness among flight attendants due to aircraft disinsection

American Journal of Industrial Medicine, 2007
AbstractBackgroundAircraft “disinsection” is the application of pesticides inside an aircraft to kill insects that may be on board. Over a 1‐year period, California's tracking system received 17 reports of illness involving flight attendants exposed to pesticides following disinsection.MethodsInterviews, work process observations, and a records review ...

Aircraft disinsection: Exposure assessment and evaluation of a new pre-embarkation method

International Journal of Hygiene and Environmental Health, 2006
A new "pre-embarkation" method for aircraft disinsection was investigated using two different 2% d-phenothrin containing aerosols. Five experiments in aircrafts of the type Airbus 310 (4x) and Boeing 747-400 (1x) were performed. In the absence of passengers and crew the d-phenothrin aerosol was sprayed under the seat rows and in a second step at the ...

The Use of DDT in Aircraft and Ship Disinsection

1959
The danger of importing exotic insects of public health and agricultural significance on board aircraft and ships engaged in international traffic has long been recognized. The International Sanitary Convention of 1933 contained provisions for the disinsection of aircraft for yellow fever control.
