In this paper, author collective present results and methodology of the insecticides testing against maize leaf weevil, in laboratory conditions. Year by year at NARDI Fundulea, in field conditions, it has tested insecticides used both like seed and vegetation treatment for control ling of the maize leaf weevil. Because climatic conditions from the spring are not favorable for this pest every year, laboratory testing is one of the best methods for evaluate of the insecticides used like seed treatment. At eight days after insects are added in the pots with maize plants, highest adults mortality and lowest attack intensity has registered in case of plants emerged from the seeds treated with products on base of thiametoxan ( Cruiser 350 FS ) , clothianidin ( Poncho 600 FS ) or thiametoxan+teflutrin ( Force Zea ) . In case of seeds treated with product on base of imidacloprid ( Nuprid 600 FS 8,0 l/t ) , even if the insects mortality was lower, the attack intensity has low values. All plants from the untreated variant were destroyed. At treated variants, saved plants percent were at least 90 %. Seed treatments provide a satisfactory protection of the maize plants, in first vegetation stages against maize leaf weevil.
