Abstract


Twelve commercial insecticides in EC and WP forms at 0.025, 005, 0,075 and 0.10% ai, were evaluated against adults and nymphs of BPH separately using diazinon 0.05% as standard. Considering the overall persistent toxicity against adults and nymphs based on 'PT values and overall mean persistent toxicity, chlorpyrifos and carboturan 0.05% 1 as foliar sprays followed by quinalphos and monocrotophos are the most effective in the control of BPH in the field.
