Swill with some particular insecticide (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

rinse

'swill' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'with some particular insecticide' is the wordplay.
'with' indicates a hidden word.
'RINSE' can be found hidden inside 'some particular insecticide'.

(Other definitions for rinse that I've seen before include "Flush" , "Wash in clean water" , "Wash off surface dirt" , "Run water through" , "Wash - siren (anag)" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
