Abstract

Materials used in three control trials included azinpbos-methyl plus mineral oil, carbaryl, demeton-S-methyl, paratbion, parathion plus mineral oil, and lime sulphur.
Carbaryl 0· 1 % was the only effective material for summer application, and lime sulphur as low as 5 parts of concentrate in lOO gal of water was the best material for
winter application. These results have been incorporated into the spray programme recommendations for the control of grape pests in the area and have proved effective in commercial vineyards.
