Abstract

The acceleration of global warming and the rise in average winter temperatures have resulted in the outbreak of pests such as gypsy moth (Lymantria dispar). In this study, we evaluated a natural plant extract for controlling the larvae of gypsy moth using immersion and foliar application methods. The eco-friendly insecticide (KEFAMA8) exhibited a 100% control efficacy when applied at ratios of 200:1 and 500:1 in the immersion method, demonstrating its insecticidal effect on gypsy moth larvae. Foliar application of KEFAMA8 also showed a 100% control rate, highlighting its excellent insecticidal efficacy in both immersion and foliar application methods. Therefore, this compound is promising as a natural insecticide for effectively managing the outbreak of pests like gypsy moths.
