Bags impregnated with garlic (Allium sativum L.) and parsley (Petroselinum crispum (Mill.) Fuss) essential oils as a new biopesticide tool for Trogoderma granarium Everts, 1898 pest control

Stored product pests can cause significant damages and great economic problems in stored commodities grain cereal. Using synthetic pesticides the storage pest control has adverse effects on human health. In our study, toxicity of garlic (Allium sativum) parsley (Petroselinum crispum) essential oils (EOs) impregnating with three types bags were assessed against Trogoderma granarium Everts, 1898 adults after different exposure intervals. GC-MS analysis investigated EOs revealed that major components 1, 3, 8-p-menthatriene (23.34 %) di-allyl disulfide (27.9 %), (1.40 alpha-terpinene (1 di-alyl tetra-sulfide as minor respectively. Additionally, comparison among treated was based LC50 values a persistence efficiency tested carried out by LC90 for each bag type. all types, had mortality 100 % clothes, 80 both plastic paper 7 days exposure, After two five treatment, most effective, but seven more effective than other types. Finally, cloth packaging insect control, indicating this approach could be considered an additional tool to concept management.
