The present invention relates to a method for controlling invertebrate pests, in particular arthropod pests and nematodes, by using pyrazole compounds of formula (I) and the salts thereof, the tautomers thereof, the N-oxides thereof and the salts of the tautomers or N-oxides thereof, (I) wherein X is N or CH, Y is N or CH, Z is N or CH, provided that either only one of X, Y and Z is N or only two adjacent groups of X, Y and Z are N and wherein Q is a bivalent 5- or 6-membered carbocyclic radical or a 5- or 6-membered heterocyclic radical having one heteroatom moiety which is selected from the group consisting of O, S, N or N-RQN as ring member and 0, 1 or 2 further heteroatom moieties N as ring members, wherein 0, 1, 2 or 3 of the ring members that are carbon atoms may carry a radical RQ, provided that the pyrazole radical and the 6-membered heteroaromatic radical are bound in ortho- or meta-position of Q with respect to each other, if Q is a 6-membered radical and wherein RA, if present, is C1-C3-alkyl, C1-C3-haloalkyl or the like n is 0, 1 or 2 RN is C1-C3-alkyl, C1-C2-haloalkyl, C1-C2-alkoxy-C1-C2-alkyl or the like Rt and Ru are independently of each other selected from hydrogen, methyl and the like RQN is hydrogen, C1-C4-alkyl or the like RQ is hydrogen, halogen, C1-C4-alkyl or the like. The present invention further relates to a method for protecting plant propagation material and/or the plants which grow therefrom, to plant propagation material, comprising at least one compound of formula (I), their salts or N-oxides, and to pyrazole compounds of formula (I).La présente invention porte sur un procédé pour la lutte contre des animaux nuisibles invertébrés, en particulier des animaux nuisibles arthropodes et des nématodes, à laide de composés de pyrazole de formule (I) et des sels de ceux-ci, des tautomères de ceux-ci, des N-oxydes de ceux-ci et des sels des tautomères ou N-oxydes de ceux-ci, (I). Dans la formule, X représente N ou CH, Y représente N ou CH, Z re
