“…In our bioassays, spinosad and carbosulfan showed a rapid and strong toxic effect on the parasitoid, similar to that found in other studies (Ulmer et al, 2006;Carrillo et al, 2009). Spinosad, an actinomycete product, is very effective as a contact and stomach poison.…”

“…Several studies have reported detrimental effects of processed kaolin on specific parasitoids in different crops (Showler and Setamou 2004;Ulmer et al 2006;Sackett et al 2007;Marko et al 2008). Iannotta et al (2007), using yellow chromotrophic traps, also found a reduction in the numbers of Ichneumonoidea and other Hymenoptera in olive trees.…”

“…In other cases, processed kaolin reduced the relative abundances of certain generalist predators, while the relative abundances of others were not affected (Sackett et al 2007). The numbers of predators decreased after processed kaolin treatments (Marko et al 2008), and parasitism rates were reduced (Ulmer et al 2006;Marko et al 2008).…”

Effects of processed kaolin on pests and non-target arthropods in a Spanish olive grove

et al. 2009

The particle film technology based on processed kaolin sprays has been recently introduced for the control of the olive fruit fly Bactrocera oleae (Rossi), the key pest of olive groves. A 3-year field experiment was conducted from 2005 to 2007 at Villarejo de Salvanés, Spain to assess the efficacy of a kaolin-based product (Surround WP) for controlling B. oleae and two other olive insect pests: the olive black scale Saissetia oleae (Olivier) and the olive psyllid Euphyllura olivina (Costa). The effects of Surround WP on the arthropod community of olive trees and on natural enemies were also evaluated. In a high olive fruit fly pressure year (2007), Surround WP sprays significantly reduced the incidence of B. oleae and that of S. oleae. However, Surround WP treatments did not have any effect on E. olivina populations. Both the abundance and the diversity of arthropods were reduced by Surround WP treatment. The principal response curve (PRC) analysis revealed a significant deleterious effect of Surround WP on the natural enemy arthropod community of the olive grove. The most affected taxa were the following: the coccinellids Scymnus mediterraneus IablokoffKhnzorian, Stethorus punctillum Weise and Hyperaspis reppensis (Hbst.); the mirid Brachynotocoris ferreri n. sp. Baena (in litteris); different species of Orius and the families of Philodromidae, Scelionidae, Pteromalidae, Chrysopidae and Aphelinidae. Processed kaolin is proposed as an alternative to chemical control of the olive fruit fly. However, the effect of processed kaolin treatments on natural enemies should be taken into account in a rational pest control programme.

“…Of interest would be comparisons of the residual toxicity of pesticides on interior versus exterior canopy leaves. As an alternative to working with leaves exposed to weather, Ulmer et al (2006) assessed residual toxicity of a number of pesticides to the eulophid Aprostocetus vacquitarum Wolcott by treating filter paper strips with various treatments and allowing the strips to weather outdoors without exposure to sunlight or precipitation. This assay approach provided information on maximum potential residual activity.…”

Sixteen pesticides including two fungicides were evaluated for toxicity to adult Tamarixia radiata (Waterston) (Hymenoptera: Eulophidae), a parasitoid of the Asian citrus psyllid, Diaphorina citri Kuwayama (Hemiptera: Psyllidae). Percentage mortality data were evaluated to generally assess IPMcompatibility of the pesticides with adult parasitoids. The following were found to be least compatible with (most toxic to) adult T. radiata based on the toxicity of direct sprays and potential long residual life on leaves: carbaryl, chlorpyrifos, and fenpropathrin. Although highly toxic to the parasitoid as direct sprays or freshly dried residues, each of the following was more compatible with T. radiata because the toxicity of residues of these pesticides was either low at one to three days after application or relatively non-persistent: abamectin, chenopodium oil, fenpyroximate, and spirotetramat. Depending on environmental conditions, imidacloprid (foliar-applied), phosmet, pyridaben, sulfur and 435 spray oil might also be somewhat more compatible for the same reasons. The pesticides that consistently appeared to be most compatible with T. radiata were aluminum tris, copper hydroxide, diflubenzuron, and kaolin clay (Surround WP).
