SiO2 Applications as an Alternative to Insect Control in Greenhouses

Abstract: Silicon dioxide (SiO2) has been extensively studied as an alternative method to pest management chemical applications in agriculture. The present work aimed to evaluate the insecticidal efficacy of different SiO2 nanoparticle formulations and their effectiveness when integrated into the textiles of an insect-proof net. For this reason, Sitophilus oryzae and Tribolium confusum were exposed to three inert dust formulations, namely Sylobloc® S200, S200-OH, and S200MEC, to investigate their effect on the mortality… Show more
