Overview

Evaluation of insecticides shows potential for Metarhizium spp. in managing house fly larvae and pupae.

Key Points

  • Aspergillus species NMMet_SS9/2 and NMMet_CLPK4/1 achieved up to 93.33% mortality in house fly larvae, indicating effective biological control.
  • Compatibility tests showed that mycelial growth of both isolates was unaffected by the insecticide Cypas® 250 EC after 28 days, confirming their viability.
  • Experiments assessed 10 isolates of Metarhizium spp., with notable results for NMMet_SS9/2 and NMMet_CLPK4/1 under specific insecticide conditions.
  • The findings suggest that these Metarhizium isolates can be utilized alongside insecticides in integrated pest management strategies.
