Why don't insecticides control insect pests forever?

There are two reasons: Insecticides do not last forever. Insecticides are classified as either residual or non-residual. Basically this refers to how long the insecticide lasts on the surface it comes to contact with. For instance, a residual insecticide might be long-lasting and thus, may stay on the surface for months. However, a non-residual insecticide may only be effective for a day or a week. Resistance. Insects normally have very high and rapid reproductive rates. This means that if for some reason a very small percent of the insect population has an inherent resistance to the particular insecticide that genetic trait is quickly passed to subsequent generations - making the insect resistant to the use of that particular pesticide.
