The bioefficacy of six newer insecticides molecules was evaluated against pod borer complex in Indian bean crop revealed that the treatment of spinosad (0.01%) proved most effective followed by indoxacarb (0.01%). The treatments of endosulfan (0.05%), cartap (0.10%) and malathion (0.05%) were existed in moderately effective group, however, the treatment of Neem oil (0.5%) was proved least effective. The order of effectiveness of insecticides against prod borer complex was:spinosad>indoxacarb>endosulfan>cartap>malathion>Neem oil.
