Abstract
Dubas bug is one of the most important pests attacking date palm trees in Iraq. To avoid insect resistance to insecticides that has been applied frequently and annually on large scale, new insecticides with low and environmentally safe doses were tested. Two experiments were conducted at Diyala governorate (Wajeehia area) during 1999-2000. In the first trial, 6 ULV insecticides were applied: Trebon 7.5, Ofunak 25, Senthion 100, Decis 12.5, Zolon 300 and Beticol 20 SL. Results indicated that all tested chemicals were effective against the pest but Trebon 7.5 was highly effective, the mortality rate was 94.72% and 91.76% in the first and second year, respectively. In the second experiment, when Trebon 7.5 ULV was applied during the Autumn season against the Dubas bug, the results indicated that this chemical was equally effective the in controlling this pest when applied during spring.
