Abstract
Experiments executed at two experiential farms in Al-Adliya, Belbeis, Sharkia and Giza Governorate, during seasons 2019-2020, on Mango orchards by using two mineral products instead of using insecticides that may cause resurgence of pest strains resistant, emergence secondary pests by disposal of natural enemies, and raise growing public interests over issues relevant to public health, environmental quality and food safety. Therefore, there is an immediate need to incubate an alternative and environmentally suitable method for B. zonata management. This experiment evaluated treatments efficacy, kaolin and calcium carbonatecompared withtraditional insecticide Malathion 57%, Data explained in seasons, male numbers of B. zonata captivated every week by sticky-traps were low on the trees sprayed by kaolin and calcium carbonate than Malathion. In Al-Adliya farm lowest infestation for both of fallen and stable fruits recorded per tree sprayed with calcium carbonate average, 25.12 and 17.01% for fallen fruits and 2.22 and 2.10% for stable fruits respectively for seasons 2019-2020. Data reported, the tested formulations in area situation showed significantly depression rate, 54.94 to 81.78 for fallen and stable fruits. Modest infestation percent in Giza farm for both of fallen and stable fruits were restricted/tree in kaolin with average 20.02; 12.14 and 3.42; 4.02 for fallen and stable fruits in 2019-2020 seasons, respectively. Tested compounds kaolin and calcium carbonate able to limit B. zonata, infestation.
