Default Preventing Development of Resistance to Insecticides

I was emailed a PDF (looks a like a scan from a magazine) of the killing
mechanisms of various insecticides, along with trade names and what they are
labeled for.

The concept is that you rotate mechanisms as a means of preventing the bugs
from developing resistance to any one "class" of killers.

If you're interested:

Whats the difference between the time before you fumigate and the time after you fumigate?

Much hardier bugs

Thanks Ray I printed it out and also saved it on my puter.

Does 1600 X-clude qualify as a replacement for Preclude? I do have a problem with, what I believe is, spider mites. It says "Timed Release Pyrethrum" and spider mites is listed on the directions.
