Abstract

The root absorption technique has been shown to be very ef­fective method for the control of coconut leef feeding caterpillars. However, this method, in order to be effective, requires a good system for monitoring the population level of the pest and a well organized and coordinated pest control teams. Like the trunk injection method the root absorption tech­nique has also many advantages: high effectiveness, good distribu­tion of insecticides in the leaves, efficient, less harmful, long remanence does not affect the natural enen‑des, thus a good method to use for integrated pest control. Furthermore, unlike the trunk injection method, the root absorption technique utilizes the root, not the trunk, of the coconut palm for introducing the pesticide. Hence, not injurious to the tree as well.

Abstract

Oryctes rhinoceros (Scarabaeidae, Dynastinae) trapping is possible with the pheromone (ethyl 4-methyloctanoate) as the attractant. This article describes a new type of trap that functions without insecticides or water, and can remain in place for several months without any particular maintenance so long as the attractant does not run out. As it is 2 m tall, it offers the advantage of having the silhouette of a palm stem, which is visually attractive to this insect
