Summary

The effectiveness of certain pesticides a ainst adults and eggs of Tetranychus cinnabarinus Boisduval infesting cotton was sti died. Kelthane S and Rogor gave the best performance in the field evaluation, whilu Kelthane, Dursban and Cyolane were best in the laboratory evaluation. Specific acaricides were generally more toxic than the other insecticides on both adults and eggs of the mite. The slide-dip method was more sensitive for testing Kelthane, Dursban and Cyolane.
