Ten days old insects were exposed for the various insecticidal treatments including proclaim 0.19 EC, Match 050 EC, Milyan 20EC, Es-Fenvalerate 5EC, Actara 25 WG, Wehelo 2.5 EC and cypermethrin 10EC. Serial dilutions of the stock solution were made in acetone. Insecticide solution was put in four Petri dishes equally i,e in each replication the residual film was made after drying of the solution with acetone. The total of 10 insects were exposed in each Petri dish and mortality was recorded after 24 hours. The order of toxicity was proclaim cypermethrin = Welhelo = Es-Fenvalerate Maliyan Match Actara.
