Abstract:The efficiency of chitin synthesis inhibitor (Lufenuron), ethanolic and acetonic extracts of rice bran (Oryza sativa) were evaluated against Musca domestica eggs by direct application using topical, dipping technique and by treating vitellogenic females by both compounds. Treatment of females with different concentrations of both compounds significantly reduce egg hatchability and the effect is dose dependent. The inhibition of egg hatching increased with increase in concentration of the compound. Direct appli… Show more
