Paper Title:
Effect of four essential oils viz, Ginger (Zingiber officinale), Garlic (Allium sativum), Lemon (Citrus aurantiifolia) and Mint (Mentha sp.) for fatality rate on hibiscus mealybug, Maconellicoccus hirustus (Hemiptera: Pseudococcidae)
Hibiscus mealybug, Maconellicoccus hirustus (Hemiptera: Pseudococcidae), is a serious pest of many crops and ornamental plants worldwide. The experiment aimed to determine the efficacy of essential oils as a natural insecticide against mealybugs. The study was conducted by exposing mealybugs to different concentrations of four essential oils and observing their mortality rates. The essential oils were ginger (Zingiber officinale), garlic (Allium sativum) lemon (citrus aurantiifolia) and mint (Menth sp.) was used to control measure for the essential oils. Mortality effect were calculated using a completely randomized design with 4 treatments The data was then submitted to statistical analysis and the test significance level was P<0.001. The apparent results show that in term of mortality rate was 5ml lemon oil causing 90% mortality within 24 hours of application and in terms of mortality rate the treatment with 5 ml ginger oil showed best results causing 72% mortality within day 1. The result shows present mortality were (Mortality rate = Lemon > Ginger > Garlic > Mint)
