Disclosed herein are compositions comprising (a) a pyridine carboxylate herbicide or an agriculturally acceptable N-oxide, salt, or ester thereof and (b) an acetolactate synthase (ALS) inhibitor or an agriculturally acceptable salt or ester thereof. Also disclosed herein are methods of controlling undesirable vegetation, comprising applying to vegetation or an area adjacent the vegetation or applying in soil or water to control the emergence or growth of vegetation (a) a pyridine carboxylate herbicide or an agriculturally acceptable N-oxide, salt, or ester thereof and (b) an ALS inhibitor or an agriculturally acceptable salt or ester thereof.

The present invention relates to compounds of Formula (I), or an agronomically acceptable salt of said compounds wherein R.sup.1, R.sup.2, R.sup.3 and R.sup.4 are as defined herein. The invention further relates to herbicidal compositions which comprise a compound of Formula (I) and to the use of compounds of Formula (I) for controlling weeds, in particular in crops of useful plants.

A method for mosquito control is provided in the form of mosquito larvicide carrying insects which can be introduced in a mosquito population to thereby control the mosquito population. The larvicide carrier insects may include artificially generated adult insect carriers of a mosquito larvicide in which the mosquito larvicide has minimal impact on the adult insect carrier and which mosquito larvicide affects juvenile mosquito survival or interferes with metamorphosis of juvenile mosquitoes to adulthood. The larvicide carrier insects may be either male or female and may include mosquitoes and non-mosquito insects.

A compound of Formula I and formulations including such a compound may be used for the reduction of infestation with ectoparasites, in particular ectoparasites of the insect class, including fleas and mosquitoes, and/or ectoparasites of the arachnid class, including ticks and mites, etc. Methods for controlling ectoparasites and/or formulations including such compounds may include use as a repellent, and/or application to a mammal, e.g., a human, dog, cat, cattle, horse, or sheep, or to an object or a fabric. The form may be a topical formulation, a shampoo composition, a cleansing composition, or a treatment composition, preferably a lotion, cream, ointment, gel, foam, patch, powder, solid, sponge, tape, vapor, paste, tincture, or spray.
