| Abstract | ||||
| This study was carried out to evaluate toxicity, persistence, and biological effect of Fenugreek, Ginseng oils, Abamectin and their mixtures. This evaluation was conducted against Callosobruchus maculatus. Results showed that Abamectin was the strongest material that still kills adults of C. maculatus, prevent egg laying and adult emergence till the end of the storage period at Lc95. oils and mixtures reduced adult emergence to varied periods. Mixing oils to Abamectin helping in using it without suffering from the danger of its high concentration usage. All treatments were not affect seed germination significantly. | ||||
