Abstract


Intensive uses of organophosphate and pyrethroid insecticides are causing the negative environmental or human health impacts.With increasing public concern about the use of these toxic pesticides to control different insect pests, resource managers are turning toward other techniques of integrated pest management. Some of these techniques are common-sense approaches, such as completing sanitation and other clean-up activities before the crop season when the damaging stages of an insect pest are present.
