Fall armyworm (FAW), Spodoptera frugiperda (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) is most destructive specie of genus Spodoptera for several agricultural crops. In Pakistan's Sindh province, the invasive fall armyworm Spodoptera frugiperda was first documented causing serious maize damage in 2019. There is need to develop management strategies against this pest in the country. The current study was conducted to check the toxicity of different insecticides against FAW in maize field. The results showed among tested insecticides, deltamethrin was recorded most toxic insecticide followed by chlorantraniliprole and emamectin benzoate. At 1d days after first spray, least number of larvae were recorded with deltamethrin (0.07 …

Journal of Bioresource Management
The use of pesticides is becoming an indispensable technique in most agricultural practices, regardless of the level of development of the country. Currently, the pesticides used are often less toxic and more specific and are based on insect physiology. Recent studies indicate that pesticide intoxication induces oxidative stress. This work aims to study the neurobehavioral consequences of the administration of two insecticides currently widely used in agriculture: spirotetramat (an inhibitor of lipid synthesis in insects) and the ethanolic extract of Citrullus colocynthis (a plant endemic to the Algerian Sahara) and the ethanolic extract of Cleome arabica (Capparidaceae) The …

The In Vitro Effect Of Certain Fungicides, Insecticides, And Biopesticides On Mycelial Growth In The Biocontrol Fungus Trichoderma Harzianum, Soumik Sarkar, Pradeepa Narayanan, Ajay Divakaran, Angusamy Balamurugan, Robert Premkumar
Turkish Journal of Biology
The in vitro effect of certain fungicides, insecticides, and biopesticides on mycelial growth of Trichoderma harzianum was evaluated. Seven systemic fungicides, 2 contact fungicides, and 4 biopesticides were tested. A progressive increase in percent inhibition of radial growth in the fungus was observed as the concentrations of the fungicides increased. Among the systemic fungicides, hexaconazole was the most toxic, followed by propiconazole and triflumizole. Toxicity of the contact fungicides was lower than that of the systemic fungicides, among which copper oxychloride and copper hydroxide were highly compatible; no inhibition was observed at lower concentrations. In terms of the insecticides tested, …

Insecticide Resistanca In Maleria Vector An. Sacharovi, Ümi̇t Lüleyap, Hali̇l Kasap
Turkish Journal of Biology
Susceptibility tests have been successfully used for many years to determine insecticide resistance raised in pest and vector insects, including An. sacharovi,the primary human malaria vector in Turkey. As this method does not provide sufficient information about physiological resistance, an alternative method of enzyme tests based on biochemical and genetic evaluations has been developed. In this study, both methods were used for comparison. First of all, susceptibility to insecticides was tested in adult females of An. sacharovi collected in different seasons from Tabaklar and Herekli Villages, where insecticides are used intensively for both agricultural and vector control purposes, and from …

Tomato Spotted Wilt Virus And Its Management, Lindrea Latham, Roger Jones
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
In 1993, western flower thrips, an important pest of horticultural crops, was found in Western Australia. Since then there has been an upsurge in damsging virus disease epidemics caused by tomato spotter wilt virus in horticultural crops. This has occurred because western flower thrips is a more effective vector of tomato spotted wilt virus than other thrips species. Lindrea Latham and Roger Jones outline the symptoms, spread and management of this serious virus disease in vegetables and ornamentals.
Choosing Shower Dips For Sheep Lice, Tony Higgs, Bob Love
Choosing Shower Dips For Sheep Lice, Tony Higgs, Bob Love
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
The performance of all shower dip chemicals for sheep lice can vary depending on the active chemical and the conditions under which they are used.
Department of Agriculture trials have indicated that the wettable powders coumaphos and magnesium fluorosilicate were less effective at eradicating sheep lice than were synthetic pyrethroid and organophosphate dipping chemicals.
However, failure to eradicate sheep lice may be the result of several factors, many of them related to management.

Broadacre Pest Control After Ddt, P J. Michael
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
DDT may no longer be applied to broadacre crops grown in Western Australia. It is being replaced by other more effective chemicals and with new methods of pest control. DDT was the most effective chemical for the control of several major broadacre pests in this State and farmers may well wonder why this change was necessary and how they will manage without DDT.

A New Approach To Grain Insect Control, G D. Rimes, M. T. Sexton
A New Approach To Grain Insect Control, G D. Rimes, M. T. Sexton
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
Western Australian farmers now have a legal responsibility to control stored grain insects on their farms.
Ten species of insects, usually referred to collectively as 'weevils', have been 'declared' under the Agriculture and Related Resources Act.
In Western Australia, grain storage insects are not found in standing cereal crops. Thus, it should be possible to set up a clean delivery "pipeline" from the paddock to the C.B.H. bin.

Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
Investigations of armyworm infestations carried out in Western Australia during 976 have shown that a complex of three species is involved in the spasmodic outbreaks that may cause damage to course grain crops.
This article looks at the economics of control methods.
Cattle Fertility Not Harmed By Pour-On Insecticides, D J. Barker
Cattle Fertility Not Harmed By Pour-On Insecticides, D J. Barker
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
Pour-on insecticides have been a feature of lice and fly control on cattle for many years and in many countries, but it seems that only in Western Australia have they been suspected of lowering fertility.
Frequent reports of this effect have been received by the Department of Agriculture since the first pour-on insecticide was marketed in W.A. in the late 1960's, culminating in the research work reported below.
The work clears pour-ons as a cause of reduced fertility in herds.
New Control For Esperance Armyworms, G R. Strickland, G. D. Rimes
New Control For Esperance Armyworms, G R. Strickland, G. D. Rimes
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
Armyworms are periodically responsible for serious cereal crop damage in Australia, often causing up to 80 per cent crop loss.
Amajor outbreak at Esperance in 1975 resulted in some 14,200 ha requiring treatment.
This was the first serious outbreak of armyworm for nine years in Western Australia.
A major new problem in the control of armyworm outbreaks is that use of DDT has been restricted by residue and withholding period problems, especially with a crop such as barley in which the grain is unprotected by glumes.
The trial results suggest that trichlorfon is a suitable material to eradicate armyworms and …
Chemicals For Argentine Ant Control, Clee Francis Howard Jenkins, P. N. Forte
Chemicals For Argentine Ant Control, Clee Francis Howard Jenkins, P. N. Forte
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
The Argentine ant is one of the most serious ant pests in the world and as such, has been the subject of large-scale control campaigns in several countries.
Early control measures against the Argentine ant in Western Australia involved quarantine of infected areas and the use of arsenical baits, based mainly on the so-called U.S. Government formula.
Since this time the hunt has been on for a more effective chemical, without undesirable effects.
Effect On Bees Of Insecticides Used On Rape, A C. Kessell
Effect On Bees Of Insecticides Used On Rape, A C. Kessell
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
Rapeseed could provide beekeepers in Western Australia with a valuable new honey crop—hut insecticidal spraying of rape at flowering time is a potentially serious threat to most commercial beekeepers.
There are indications that insect pollination may improve rapeseed yields, so both growers and beekeepers could gain from a co-operative approach to the problem. Spraying after sundown and preventing spray drift to nearby apiaries should avoid most losses.

Fruit Fly, D G. Shedley
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
FRUIT fly control is compulsory! To obtain effective control of fruit fly it is necessary to combine strict orchard hygiene with bait spraying.
In addition, cover spraying with DIPTEREX will give extra protection to stone fruit and pears.
When the breeding powers of the fruit fly are considered it is easy to understand why home growers and orchardists need to fight a continual battle against this pest.
Fruit Fly Control With Rogor 40 And Lebaycid : Progress Report, D G. Shedley
Fruit Fly Control With Rogor 40 And Lebaycid : Progress Report, D G. Shedley
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
THE Mediterranean fruit fly has been present in Western Australia for over 60 years and during that time many types of insecticides have been tested against the pest.
Traps and lures were amongst the earliest control measures adopted, but these gave way to sugar solutions poisoned with such materials as arsenic and sodium fluosilicate.
Cattle Lice : Spray Now For Prevention, F C. Wilkinson
Cattle Lice : Spray Now For Prevention, F C. Wilkinson
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
ALTHOUGH lice infestation can occur in any season of the year, the heaviest infestations are found during the winter.
This build up of lice infestation normally starts in the autumn but if the cattle are treated by spraying at this period, the majority of the lice are killed and the build up is prevented.
Thus the old saying "Prevention is better than cure" certainly applies with regard to cattle lice.
Control Of The Red-Legged Earth Mite And Lucerne Flea : Treatment Of Seed With Systemic Insecticides, M M H Wallace
Control Of The Red-Legged Earth Mite And Lucerne Flea : Treatment Of Seed With Systemic Insecticides, M M H Wallace
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
THE red-legged earth mite, Halotydeus destructor (Tuck.), and the lucerne flea, Sminthurus viridis (L.), are at present controlled effectively, cheaply and safely by a combined DDT/malathion spray (Jenkins, 1956, 1957) and this continues to be the general recommendation for farmers.
However, this combination has some disadvantages. The DDT in the spray ensures some residual control of the earth mite but has the unfortunate property of toxicity to the bdellid mites which are useful predators of the lucerne flea.
The malathion in the spray assists the DDT to control the earth mite and provides a good, quick kill of the lucerne …
New Insecticides For The Control Of The Argentine Ant In Western Australia, P N. Forte, T Greaves
New Insecticides For The Control Of The Argentine Ant In Western Australia, P N. Forte, T Greaves
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 3
The Argentine Ant (Iridomyrmex humilis Mayr), has been the subject of much investigation in Western Australia. Jenkins (1943), Jenkins and Forte (1946, 1951), Jenkins (1948) and Forte (1949) have reported results of extensive work on the control of this pest. The results of the investigations have shown that effective control can be obtained by the use of DDT sprays but that large scale eradication was not possible with DDT.
