Abstract
Present investigation was undertaken to evaluate the effect of botanicals and microbial pesticides for management of wax moth (galleria mellonella L.) under stored condition. Maximum mortality of greater wax moth (GWM) Gallleria mellonella (L.) (Lepidoptera: Pyralidae) was observed due to the treatment of of Bacillus thuringiensis kurstaki (Halt). followed by pongamia oil (3%) and neem oil (3%). Lowest mortality was observed due to Bacillus thuringiensis local strain-2 and Dried neem leaf. Maximum mortality was observed in case of third instar larvae for most of the treatments.
