ABSTRACT:
The invention relates to a new bacterial strain belonging to the genusBrevibacillus laterosporusdeposited at the NCIMB Ltd. Aberdeen, UK and to its derivatives. The bacterium and its derivatives have insecticidal activity and constitute the active principle of compositions and feeding baits used for biological control of Dipters, Nematocers and Brachycerus (flies, mosquitos, horseflies and midges) and especially against the speciesMusca domestica. Therefore, according to a further aspect, the invention relates to a method for biological control of insects belonging to the order Dipters. The active principle has activity against Nematocers and Brachycerus (flies, mosquitos, horseflies and midges) and especially against the speciesMusca domestica.
