"The Oriental fruit fly, Bactrocera dorsalis (Hendel), is commonly occurred at avocado orchards in Taiwan. This study was proceeded at Jhuci, Chiayi and Chiayi Agricultural Experiment Branch with areas 0.6 ha and 0.3 ha, respectively. The number of female and male flies caught with guava fruit-sticky-bag, as a control efficacy index, while without bait (check plot) were significantly higher than bait with Spinosad which 0.02% Spinosad bait diluted 8-fold was used at Jhuci. The average percentage of fruit damage and degree of fruit infested in bait with Spinosad plot were also lower than in check plot, the female number from the bait with Spinosad plot was 1.6 times higher than the check plot, and the control rate was up to 50.9% averaged from 16 weeks. The result from Chiayi Branch showed that the average percentage of fruit damage in check plot from 7 weeks was 55.4% which was significantly different to the 22.5% in treated plot, and the control rate was also up to 56%. The results from these two experiments showed that the bait with Spinosad could provide a good control efficacy, with more than 50% control rate, at such small avocado orchard that should have an applying and extension potential." |
