by liquid scintillation spectrometry and gas chromatography. Average 

 recovery of labeled busulfan was 93% for bothe the topically treated and 

 injected weevils. Average recovery of unlabeled busulfan was 97 and 96% 

 for topically treated and injected weevils, respectively.

 When adult boll weevils, Anthonomus grandis (Boheman); tobacco budworms, 

 Heliothis virescens (F.); brown dog ticks, Rhlplcephalus sanguineus (Latrielle) ; 

 alfalfa weevils, Hypera postica (Gyllenhal) ; Japanese beetles, Popillia japonlca 

 Newman; European chafers, Amphimallon ma j alls (Razoumowsky) ; house crickets, 

 Acheta domesticus (L.); bruchids, Zabrotes subfasciatus (Boheman); and vinegar 

 flies, Drosophila melanogaster Meigen, were exposed to several promising 

 micronized insccticidal dusts and insecticidal aerosols in tractor trailers, 

 freight cars, and aircraft, excellent initial. Jcills were obtained with Mobara® 

 (be nzo \ h] thien-4-vl methylcarbamate) , resmethrin, chlorpyrifos, and propoxur 

 use-j .-ilone and in combination. The residual effect varied somewhat depending 

 on the species tested. The 2 most promising aerosols were concentrated pre- 

 parations of resmethrin and d- trans allethrin.
