Abstract

Study conducted to determine the efficacy of 5 insecticides and 21 plant products against the eggs of Scotinophara coaractata (Fab.) indicated that acephate and imidacloprid were the most effective insecticides causing 100% and 95.83% mortality, respectively followed by chlorpyriphos, profenophos and monocrotophos causing 91.67%, 89.62% and 87.52% mortality respectively. Both neem seed kernal extract and neem oil caused 56.25% egg mortality.
