Özet
The development of alternatives to chemical insecticides has been an attractive topic in stored product pest management due to the limited number of options. This study examined the individual and combined activities of two promising eco-friendly alternatives, the diatomaceous earth product Detech® and the plant-based essential oil α-pinene, against Sitophilus granarius (L.), S. zeamais Motschulsky, 1855 (Coleoptera: Curculionidae), Tribolium confusum Jaquelin Du Val, 1868 (Coleoptera: Tenebrionidae) and Rhyzopertha dominica (Fabricius, 1792) (Coleoptera: Bostrichidae) under laboratory conditions. Individual and combined insecticidal effects of Detech® and α-pinene were evaluated by their direct application to wheat or maize. Complete mortality against S. granarius, R. dominica, and T. confusum occurred at 2 days with 10 and 15 ppm of α-pinene, while 15 ppm of α-pinene produced 100% mortality after 3 days of exposure for S. zeamais. The highest mortality with Detech® was 38.6% at 21 days using 500 ppm for S. zeamais, while it was 51.7 % against S. granarius, and 72.7 % against R. dominica. Detech® did not show any significant activity against T. confusum at any application level. Combined applications of Detech®+α-pinene demonstrated the highest mortality on R. dominica (40.4% mortality), S. zeamais (27.9%), and S. granarius (18.5%), while no significant effect was found on T. confusum (1.1%). Overall, α-pinene was more effective than Detech® against all four tested beetles species. Combined applications led to reduced mortality.
