The present inventors have found that the contrasting chemical, physical and environmental characteristics of alpha and beta endosulfan provide an opportunity to formulate an effective endosulfan formulation with lower risk to the environment. Accordingly, the present invention provides a method for controlling or reducing pest numbers in an area affected or likely to be affected by pests, the method comprising applying to the area an endosulfan formulation, the formulation comprising beta endosulfan and alpha endosulfan, wherein the ratio of beta to alpha endosulfan in the formulation is at least 3.5:6.5 w/w.

Les inventeurs de l'invention ont découvert que les caractéristiques chimiques, physiques, et environnementales différentes de l'endosulfane alpha et bêta permettent d'établir une formulation efficace d'endosulfane présentant moins de risques pour l'environnement. De ce fait, l'invention concerne un procédé permettant de réguler ou de réduire le nombre de nuisibles dans une zone infestée ou qui sera probablement infectée. Ledit procédé consiste à appliquer une formulation d'endosulfane sur une zone infestée, ladite formulation comprenant un endosulfane bêta et un endosulfane alpha, leur rapport étant d'au moins 3,5/6,5 M/M.
