Claim 1
Independent Claim
52 words
A larvicidal composition comprising a larvicidal refined petroleum oil boiling in the range of about 500°- 750° F. having dispersed therein from about 0.2- 0.8 weight percent of a di-lower-alkyl polysiloxane and about 0.3 to 2.0 weight percent of an ethoxylated C 8 - C 12 mono-alkyl phenol having 2-5 ethoxy groups.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
52 words
A larvicidal composition comprising a larvicidal refined petroleum oil boiling in the range of about 500°- 750° F. having dispersed therein from about 0.2- 0.8 weight percent of a di-lower-alkyl polysiloxane and about 0.3 to 2.0 weight percent of an ethoxylated C 8 - C 12 mono-alkyl phenol having 2-5 ethoxy groups.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
25 words
