The present invention addresses the problem of developing and providing a novel agricultural and horticultural insecticide due to factors such as the development of pests resistant to existing chemicals since damage by pests is still a major issue in crop production such as agriculture and horticulture. The present invention provides a fused heterocyclic compound having an oxime group represented by general formula (1) (in the formula, R 1 represents an alkoxy group, R 2 represents a haloalkyl group, R 3 represents a haloalkylthio group, A represents an oxygen atom, A 1 represents a CH group, m is 2, and n is 1) or salts thereof, agricultural/horticultural insecticides having these as active ingredients, and a method for using the insecticides. |
