Insect pest such as O. arenosella can cause extensive damage to coconut across India. Among the coconut affected pests, O. arenosella is very serious one. This pest are difficult to manage with conventional methods. This pest population have been shown to progressively diminish through natural parasitoid interactions. Thus providing an effective and sustainable approach for controlling this pest.The main objective of this work was to test the effect of B. brevicornis use against pest O. arenosella for the management of this challenging pest O. arenosella in order to reduce its attack.
Pheromones can act as a means of monitoring and controlling an insect population, while being non-toxic to animals and plants, yet specific to the target pest. Four different sex hormones have been identified and isolated from the female moth O. arenosella, and could potentially be useful in mass trappings, or mating disruption. While considerable progress has been made to adapt and develop this form of control, the current research is still preliminary and needs to be further tested....Source
