| Abstract:
Some insect growth regulators (IGR's) were evaluated in 1992–1995 in the control of apple rust mite Aculus schlechtendali, plum rust mite Aculus fockeui and pear rust mite Epitrimerus piri. The insecticides were applied twice, in pre- and post bloom control program in the orchards or in May and June in the stoolbeds. Flucycloxuron 25% and flufenoxuron 5% were the most effective and they kept mite populations at a low level during vegetation season. Diflubenzuron 25% and teflubenzuron 15% showed lower efficacy against rust mites. | |
