Abstract

Pieces of sponge measuring 0.15 cu cm were impregnated with monocrotophos 40 per cent and inserted into two to three holes of 2.0 to 2.5 cm diameter drilled in the main stem mango trees. Annually a maximum of five applications of 30 to 60 ml (12-24 ml a.i.) of the pesticide for each hole were required according to the level of infestation. About 80 per cent control of the stem borers (Batocera rufomaculata) was achieved after 12 months of applications
