A study was conducted to evaluate the bioefficacy of some commercially available insecticides against mango fruit borer larvae in the fruiting season of 2019. According to the results of our study, thiamethoxam 25 WG @ 25 g a.i/ha gave the best performance, followed by imidacloprid 200 SL @ 65 g a.i/ha, while fipronil 5 SC @ 75 g a.i/ha was the less effective of all the insecticides used.
