“…After 5 months, Beauveria bassiana, Metarhizium anisopliae, mustard, and nigella treatments had a significantly lower percentages of grain damage and lower seed weight loss (10, 15, 17, and 22%), respectively (Sabbour and Abd El-Aziz 2007). These results are in agreement with those of Arya and Tiwari (2013). Nothing is more effective than neem, jatropha seed, mustard, and cow dung ash which had no weight loss of seeds, while cow dung powder recorded the least weight loss (4.80%) in comparison to untreated control (34.80%).…”

“…While in the case of E. cutella, least weight loss was recorded in the case of nano rosemary (7%) and followed by nano eucalyptus (8%), nano garlic (11%), and nano anise (17%) compared with the untreated control (43%). In laboratory experiments, grain losses by insects of stored products had been tested (Moino et al 1998;Padina et al 2002;Sabbour and Abd El-Aziz 2007;Arya and Tiwari 2013). Up to 60 days, the percentages of infestation did not exceed, 13, 15, 20, and 20%, respectively.…”

Background: For the purpose of environmental safety, many essential oils were recommended in many Integrated Pest Management (IPM) programs to protect plants from insect's infestations and have few effects on non-target organisms and the environment. This study was aimed to investigate and estimate the activity of four nano essential oils against tested insects under laboratory and store conditions. Methods: The nano encapsulation process was carried out by polymerization technology. The tested nano oils were experimented at tested concentration (0.5%) for their insecticidal activities against the third-instar larvae of tested insects. After 7 days of exposure, accumulative mortality percentages were calculated in the treated and untreated control. Also, the tested nano oils were sprayed to the foam granules and were mixed with wheat (2 g foam/100 g wheat) for testing the oviposition inhibitory effects of tested oils. Additionally, the experiment was designed to test the persistent effect of tested oils against Ephestia kuehniella and E. cautella on foam as surface protectant after 90-day intervals.Results: The larval accumulative mortality of tested insect species enhanced progressively with the increase of exposition times (7 days). In the case of tested insects, rosemary oil gave the highest accumulative mortality percentages. The persistence effects of tested nano oils on foam and covering gunny bags showed various biological activates by reducing number of eggs, almost suppressing the percentages of progeny emergence (F1) and high percentages of malformation of tested insects. The efficacy of the tested nano oils on the weight loss of wheat grains after 90 days of storage was experimented. Conclusion:Results of this work and that of other researchers indicate that some essential oils might be useful for managing insects in enclosed spaces because of their fumigant action. Plant essential oils and their active ingredient have potentially high bioactivity against a range of insects. Furthermore, they are highly selective to insects. Incorporation of essential oils into a controlled release nanoformulation prevents rapid vaporization and degradation, increases constancy, and preserves the lower effective dosage/application. Treated foam with nano rosemary and nano eucalyptus oil and covering gunny bags provided many efficient effects against tested insects.

“…The practice of mixing inert materials such as sand, saw dust, talc, ash and plant products with seeds of cereals to save them from stored pests is quite common in rural areas of India ( Rajapakse, 2006). The efficacy of plant and animal origin products against S. oryzae was studied by (Arya and Tiwari , 2013) with no adverse effect on quality parameters of wheat seeds after 180 days of storage period. Mishra and Pandey (2014) reported the efficacy of neem oil, neem cake, dry neem leaf powder and neem seed kernel powder as seed protectant against S. oryzae in stored wheat after 3, 6 and 9 months of storage.…”

he laboratory experiments were conducted to study the efficacy of some indigenous products such as plant products (chopped neem leaves ajwain seed powder, garlic capsules, saw dust), animal derivedproducts ( cow dung cake powder, cow urine) and inert materials ( ash powder, sand, talcum powder, salt) @ 2g/100g of wheat grains against rice weevil, Sitophilus oryzae (Linn.) and lesser grain borer, Rhyzoper thadominica (Fab.) on stored wheat by undertaking various parameters viz., percent adult emergence, percent seed damage, per cent weight loss and per cent germination after six months of storage during April to October 2015. After 180 days of treatments, the minimum number of adults weevils of S. oryzae( 4.00, 6.00,7.67, 9.00, 9.67 and 10.33) were emerged in wheat grains treated with ash powder, sand, cow dung powder, talcum powder, ajwain seed powder and neem leaf powder, respectively with minimum grain damage (7.33 %, 8.67 %,11.67 % and 12.00 %) was observed on ash powder, sand, ajwain seed powder and talcum powder, respectively, whereas minimum weight loss (2.67 %, 3.67 %, 5.67 % and 6.67 %) was recorded on ash powder, sand, cow dung powder, talcum powder and ajwain seed powder, respectively. Similarly, the minimum number of adult beetles of R. dominica were emerged (2.00,2.33, 6.67,7.00 and 8.33) in ash power, sand, talcum powder, cow dung cake powder and ajwain seed powder, respectively with minimum grain damage (4.00 %,8.00 %. 8.67 % and 12.67 % and weight loss (1.33 %, 4.00 %, 7.33 % and 11.67 %) in sand, ash powder, talcum powder and cow dung cake treated wheat grains, respectively. It has been clearly observed that seed germination was not affected adversely in any treatment during six months of storage. The present study clearly revealed that these naturally occurring indigenous products could be used to manage the storage insect pests in wheat.

“…Many botanical extracts contain various types of bioactive ingredients and chemicals which are toxic to stored product insects including S. zeamais. However, there are many research work done on the evaluation of different indigenous plant extracts against stored product pest (Pandey andBrave, 2011 andArya andTiwari, 2013). Under these circumstances, an investigation was undertaken to determine the toxicity, repellency and residual effects of leaf extracts of some weed plants such as (i) water hyacinth (Eichhornia crassipes), (ii) swamp smartweed (Polygonum coccineum), (iii) ariach (Cassia tora), (iv) wild capsicum (Croton bonplandianum), and (v) hill glory bower (Clerodendrum viscosum) against S. zeamais Motsch.…”
