An experiment was conducted to evaluate the efficacy of Monocrotophos 40WSC, Endosulfan 35EC, Confidor 200SL, Polo 500SC and Cascade 10WDC against whitefly, jassid, and thrips on cotton at Ammanullah Agricultural Model Farm Mana More Tehsil Burewala, Vehari in 2007. All the test insecticides caused significant mortality of whitefly and thrips at 24 hours, 72 hours, and even 168 hours after spray. All insecticides showed significant mortality against jassid at 24 hours and 72 hours after spray. However all insecticides showed statistically same efficacy against jassid at 168 hours after spray. Confidor and Polo were highly effective while Cascade was least effective against sucking insect pests of cotton.
