Abstract
The insecticidal activities of the Eucalyptus dives and Thymus vulgaris oils were assessed against Plodia interpunctella and Tribolium castaneum in granary. Insecticidal activities of the E. dives oil showed 100 % mortality against P. interpunctella larvae for 72 h and P. interpunctella adults for 3 h. Moreover, the T. vulgaris oil was observed with 100 % mortality against T. castaneum larvae for 120 h and T. castaneum adults for 120 h. These results indicate that it may be possible to control P. interpunctella and T. castaneum through the application of E. dives and T. vulgaris oils in granary.
