The present invention relates to novel heteroaryl-triazole compounds of the general formula (I), in which the structural elements X, R.sup.1, R.sup.2, R.sup.3, R.sup.4 and R.sup.5 have the meaning given in the description, to formulations and compositions comprising such compounds and for their use in the control of animal pests including arthropods and insects in plant protection and to their use for control of ectoparasites on animals.

##STR00001##

This disclosure provides an isophthalamide compound and use thereof, wherein the compound has a structure as shown by general formula I:

##STR00001##

the definition of each substituent in the formula is shown in the specification. The specification also discloses use thereof as an insecticide and an animal parasite control agent.

In crop production in the fields of agriculture, horticulture and the like, the damage caused by insect pests etc. is still immense, and insect pests resistant to existing insecticides have emerged. The present invention has been made in view of such circumstances, and an object of the present invention is to develop and provide a novel agricultural or horticultural insecticide. Another object of the present invention is to provide an agent capable of eliminating ectoparasites or endoparasites of animals. These objects are achieved by an imidazopyridazine compound represented by the general formula (1):

##STR00001##

(wherein R.sup.1 preferably represents a haloalkyl group, R.sup.2 preferably represents a thienyl group, and R.sup.3 preferably represents an alkylthioalkyl group) or a salt thereof, an agricultural or horticultural insecticide or an animal ectoparasite or endoparasite control agent each comprising the compound or the salt thereof as an active ingredient, and a method for using the compound or the salt thereof, the insecticide, or the control agent.

The present disclosure describes stable aqueous suspension concentrate formulations that include one or more water-insoluble or partially water-soluble agrochemical active ingredient(s), optionally a rosin, and a sulfopolymer. The present disclosure also describes methods of making and using such formulations in agriculture.
