Abstract: The invention is related to a novel strain(s) of Bacillus thuringiensis in which essentially all of the pesticidal activity of said strain is in the supernatant of a fermentation of said strain. The strain produces a substance which has activity against an insect pest(s) of the order Coleoptera and which enhances the pesticidal activity of a Bacillus related pesticide. The invention further relates to pesticidal compositions comprising the substance and a pesticidal carrier, or the substance and a Bacillus related pesticide, a chemical pesticide and/or a virus with pesticidal properties as well as methods of using the pesticidal compositions to control a pest.
