Abstract

The study showed that the highest activation percentage of the insecticides (Spinosad, Emamectin and the mixture of the insecticides) were obtained when mixed with silica gel for the larvae grown on the corn (2.266, 1.255 and 1300 respectively), while the lowest activation percentage (Antagonism) was recorded for the mixture of each of the Spinosad and Emamectin separately with the gypsum of the larvae grown on the wheat giving 0.776 and 0.989, respectively. The highest of synergism percentage was for silica gel when mixed with each of Spinosad, Emamectin and the mixture of insecticide against the larvae which grown on corn reached 2.014, 1.178 and 1.256 respectively; the lowest of synergism percentage was for gypsum when mixed with the Spinosad and the insecticide mixture against larvae grown on the wheat, which reached 0.454 and 0.918 respectively, while the ratio was 0.841 for the Emamectin insecticide when mixed with the limestone against the larvae which grown on wheat. For the percentage of potentiation, the study showed that the treatment of larvae grown on wheat and corn which treated with a mixture (silica gel and Spinosad insecticide) gave the highest percentage of the potentiation of the pesticide reached 0.41 and 0.252 respectively, and the lowest potentiation percentage of larvae on wheat and maize was recorded for gypsum with the mixture of insecticides reaching 0.082 and 0.016 respectively.
