Out of three bio-pesticides, spinosad was proved an excellent ovipositional deterrent bio-pesticide as it gave 79.5 per cent mortality of C. serratus adults after three days of seed treatment when used @ 2.0 mg (a.i.)/50 g seeds. Beauveria bassiana and Verticillium lecanii were found equal in its efficacy and less effective as compared to spinosad.
