Assessing the Toxic Potential of Insecticide and Indigenous Botanical Extract against the Stored Grain Pest Tribolium castaneum (Coleoptera: Tenebrionidae)

Abstract: The red flour beetle T. castaneum (Herbst) (Coleoptera: Terebrionidae) is a cosmopolitan species and causes considerable loss to stored food grains [1]. Managing storage food grain pests is not a current issue. Various recommendations of grain storage techniques using different natural products to kill or keep away the infesting insect pests have been advised by previous researchers [2-3]. T. castaneum is a common and most destructive pest throughout the world and is generally

“…Many researchers have evaluated plant extracts for the management of different insect pests, for example, Mentha royleana Benth. (Lamiales: Lamiaceae) and Artemisia absinthium (L.) (Asterales: Asteraceae) extracts against T. castaneum (Zuhra et al, 2018), datura leaf extract against Trogoderma granarium (Everts, 1898) (Coleoptera: Dermestidae) (Ali et al, 2012), Elletaria cardamomum (L.) (Zingiberales: Zingiberaceae) against Sitophilus zeamais (Motschulsky), 1855 (Coleoptera: Curculionidae) and T. castaneum (Huang et al, 2000), Abroma augusta (L.) (Malvales: Malvaceae) and garlic extracts against T. castaneum (Mondal et al, 2006;Yang et al, 2010), Azadirachta indica (A. Juss.)…”

“…El control con insecticidas constituye el método más rápido de control para pulgones, sin embargo, la aplicación constante de insecticidas genera desequilibrio ambiental, aumenta los costos de producción y causa problemas en la salud de los seres humanos 7 , por lo tanto, es necesario el uso de métodos alternativos que permitan el control y manejo del pulgón negro. Entre los métodos alternativos para el control de insectos plaga se encuentra el uso de extractos botánicos 8,9 . Algunos de los principales beneficios de los extractos botánicos son los siguientes: son seguros para aplicar (baja toxicidad para mamíferos), pueden ser fácilmente procesados y aplicados (no requiere de tecnología sofisticada) y aplicados, además de ser productos ecológicos, tienen compatibilidad con los componentes ambientales 10,11 .…”
