The subject invention concerns novel biopesticides and their use to control cockroaches, carpenter ants, and pharaoh ants. Specifically, highly virulent isolates of Beauveria bassiana in an agricultural composition, can be used to effectively control these pests. Exemplified are Beauveria bassiana No. 447, ATCC 20872, and Beauveria bassiana SP111, ATCC 74038. Also described are unique formulations which are highly effective for delivering biocontrol agents to target pests. By using these novel compositions, target pests can be controlled without the environmental and public safety hazards presented by chemical control agents.

L'invention concerne de nouveaux biopesticides et leur utilisation contre les blattes, les fourmis charpentières et les fourmis pharaons. Plus précisément, on peut utiliser des isolats hautement virulents de Beauveria bassiana, introduits dans une composition destinée à l'agriculture, pour lutter efficacement contre ces nuisibles. On cite les exemples de Beauveria bassian No. 447, ATCC 20872 et Beauveria bassiana SP111, ATCC 74038. On décrit aussi des formulations exclusives très efficaces pour diffuser ces agents de lutte biologique chez les nuisibles cibles. On peut ainsi lutter contre ces derniers grâce à ces nouvelles compositions sans impliquer les risques, pour l'environnement et la santé publique, propres aux agents de lutte chimique.
