Abstract
Eight pesticides were evaluated for control of Fiorinia theae Green on camellia, Camellia japonica L. Methods of application included foliar sprays, paint-ons, and soil treatments. Effective control of tea scale was obtained with trunk applications of undiluted dimethoate and oxydemeton-methyl EC formulations. Dimethoate, oxide-meton-methyl, and acephate foliar sprays also were effective, as was dimethoate soil drench. Soil treatments of aldicarb and oxydemeton-methyl afforded a lesser degree of control, and foliar sprays of diazinon, malathion, phenthoate, and Altosid® (isopropyl (2E, 4E)—11—methoxy—3, 7, ll—trimethyl—2, 4—dodecadienoate) afforded little or no control.
