“…In the present study, the combined treatments of three plant oils (LC50) with Argon recorded higher toxicty than individual treatments on larvae of G. mellonella. The obtained results agreed with Gad et al (2022) who reported that binary treatments of inert dusts (ZE and KA), with CA are considered a promising and alternative to different chemical insecticides for the control of bruchid insects infesting different stored legumes.…”

Wax moth (Galleria mellonella) is serious pests of beeswax worldwide. These study was conducted to estimate the effectiveness of three plant oils (Lemongrass oil, Moringa oil and Pumpkin oil), argon gas and conjunction of them to develop alternative method of controlling the 4 th larval instar of G. mellonella. Potential activities of active ingredients on mortality percentage and duration of exposure to wax moth at four concentrations (3, 1.50, 0.75and0.37%v/w) were estimated. Data cleared that the mortality effect depends on applied material type and concentration. Lemongrass oil was recorded (100%) larval mortality 7 days post-treatment, being of highest activity comparing with the two other materials and control. Results showed that after 3 days post-treatments by Lemongrass oil, the LC50 value was 2.18 % (v/w). The LT50 values against the 4 th larval instar of G. mellonella were 22.48, 45.09 and 68.04 hr. for Argon 100, 80 and 60%, respectively. In general, the larval mortality was higher in binary treatments (plant oils (LC50) mixed with Aragon gas) than individual treatments only by the oil. It was the best treatment Lemongrass oil (LC50 2.18) +Ar.( 100) where the full mortality (100.0%) of larvae was achieved 24 hours after treatment, treatment with this combination Lemongrass oil (LC50 2.18)+Ar.( 100) increased AchE and decreased Cytochrome P-450, GST, αamylase and invertase when compared to the control. However, these results clarified the necessity to more research in order to affirm their effect in the field and honeybee.

“…While in treatment with Kaolin at 1000 mg/kg caused the highest insecticidal activity with adult mortality of 73.7 and 80.9% for C. maculatus after 3 and 7 days from treatment. kaolin at 1000 mg/kg after 3 days, it caused the mortality 59.9 and 72.4 % of C. chinensis adults by Gad et al (2022). The variation in the results could be explained by the kaolin purity used and the bioassay modification, where the cowpea beetles have higher contact than in our bioassay.…”

“…Therefore, there is rapid necessity to find suitable approaches depending on bio-rational materials for control of stored-grain pests (Sukumar et al, 1991) that have rather safe , less persistence , cheap and ecofriendly (Magaji et al, 2005). Among of those material, Beauveria bassiana (Abdu-Allah et al, 2015;Batta and Kavallieratos, 2018) , Metarhizium anisopliae (Ozdemir et al, 2020;Iqbal et al, 2021) , ascorbic acid (Garg and Mahajan, 1994;Ahmad et al, 2013) , boric acid (Kausar et al, 2012;AS and Azher, 2020) , talc powder ( Ciobanu and Drosu, 2009;Alice and Srikanth, 2013) , kaolin (Kéita et al, 2001;Gad et al, 2022) , malathion 1% dust (Gharib, 2006;Zayed, 2012) . Re-evaluation of the effectiveness of the bio-rational materials against cowpea beetle adults compared with the recommended organophosphate insecticide, malathion 1% dust should be investigated.…”

Cowpea beetle, Callosobruchus maculatus (Fabricius) (Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae) is one of the most dangerous insect pests in field and storage. It causes a high damage to the legumes by decreased dietary values, germination and seed weights. Using synthetic insecticides for controlling stored grain pests have a lot of problems for humans and environment. Therefore, the mixing seeds laboratory experiments were conducted to study the efficacy of certain alternative safety compounds against C. maculatus such as Beauveria bassiana, Metarhizium anisopliae, ascorbic acid, boric acid, talc powder and kaolin compared with an organophosphorus nervous insecticide, malathion 1% dust, that recommended in Egypt for controlling stored grain pests. The present results showed that the malathion was the highest toxicity effect against cowpea beetle adults with LC 50(3.89 ppm) after 3-day post treatment. However, the boric acid was the lowest toxicity effect with LC50 (72855 ppm) after 6 days post treatment. The other tested materials showed moderate effects. These results indicate that malathion is still having high effect against cowpea beetle. The toxicity of bio-insecticides (M. anisopliae and B. bassiana) after 6days were more than toxicity malathion 1%dust after 1day.Wheraes, the toxicity of bio-insecticides (M. anisopliae and B. bassiana) increased with increase of period of exposure from 2 to 6 days high rates about 28 times, 31 times, respectively. The findings showed that the tested compounds have a promising insecticidal activity against C. maculatus and can be used as possible alternatives to synthetic chemical insecticides such as malathion for the control of stored product insects.

“…However, the continuous use of these insecticides induces several adverse effects, such as development of insect resistance, environmental pollution, toxicity to humans and non-target organisms 6 . To overcome these problems, other alternatives, such as bioinsecticides, botanical insecticides, insect growth regulators, physical methods and modi ed atmospheres have been developed and applied for the control of bruchid insects [7][8][9][10][11] .…”

The residual efficacy of three chitin synthesis inhibitors (CSIs) (chlorfluazuron, hexaflumuron and lufenuron) and oxymatrine at an application rate of 5.0 mg/kg was evaluated against Callosobruchus maculatus and Callosobruchus chinensis monthly for 5 consecutive months (6 bioassays). In each bioassay, the mortality of two insect adults was counted after 7 days, progeny reduction and cowpea weight loss percentages were recorded after 45 days. Our results revealed that CSIs caused high level of adult mortality of both insects and oxymatrine caused a complete adult mortality (100%) for five months storage. The tested CSIs produced a significant progeny reduction of C. maculatus and C. chinensis but did not achieve a complete reduction of F1 progeny during all storage periods. A complete progeny suppression of two insects and full cowpea seed protection were observed in all oxymatrine treatments during the entire storage periods. A remarkable protection of cowpea seeds was also achieved in the treatments with CSIs particularly chlorfluazuron during the first 3 months. These findings indicate CSIs and oxymatrine could be implemented in IPM of these insects.
