What is the defining feature of Baits as a pesticide formulation?

  1. Mix with water and form a true solution

  2. Contain high active ingredient concentrations

  3. Forms a suspension when ready to use

  4. Active ingredient mixed with food or another attractive substance

The correct answer is: Active ingredient mixed with food or another attractive substance

Baits are a type of pesticide formulation that have an active ingredient mixed with food or another attractive substance. This method is used to specifically target and eliminate pests in a targeted area. The other options are incorrect because they do not mention the use of an attractive substance for the active ingredient, which is the defining feature of baits. Option A mentions mixing with water to form a true solution, which is a feature of some liquid pesticides but not baits. Option B mentions high concentrations of the active ingredient, which is a common feature of pesticides in general but not specific to baits. Option C mentions forming a suspension, which is common in some liquid pesticides but not baits. Overall, the defining feature of baits is the use of an attractive substance to deliver the active ingredient to the target pests.
