Nine insecticides were incorporated at different concentrations in artificial diet to determine their larvicidal effectiveness on grape berry moth Eupoecilia ambiguella from a laboratory strain originally collected in the region along the Lake of Geneva. A first evaluation was made after 14 days of rearing. Surviving individuals were then kept until adult emergence. Dose-mortality curves have been established. Efficiency varied widely among the tested insecticides. Seven out of nine products had a good potential to control grape berry moth as their LC50 values ranged from 0.02 to I ppm: methoxyfenolide, spinosad, flufenoxuron, tebufenozide, indoxacarb, chlorpyrifos- methyl and teflubenzuron. Concerning chlorpyrifos-ethyl (Pyrinex), its high LC50 of approximately 100 ppm can be attributed to the microencapsulated formulation that probably does not allow a good diffusion of active ingredients into the diet. Diflubenzuron does not present any interest for controlling grape berry moth. Methoxyfenozide and tebufenozide are potentially a little more effective on grape berry moth than on grapevine moth. Spinosad is appreciably more active on grape berry moth whereas teflubenzuron is clearly more effective on grapevine moth.
