Large populations and previous exposure to environmental residue are two factors which may contribute to insecticide resistance. Strengthened immune systems can result from interactions with previous applications of the insecticide and from mutants within large numbers of same-generation, same-litter insects.

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.
