Abstract

More than 50 years have passed since the appearance of the rice stem borer, Chilo supprassalis Walker in the country, and during this period it has been mainly under chemical control, especially with granular poisons. Recently, the use of liquid insecticides is used to control this pest, but their effect on natural enemies has been less investigated. In this research, the effect of three liquid insecticide, including fipronil (SC5%), diazinon (EC60%), fenitrothion (EC50%) and control (spraying) investigated on the most important natural enemies in rice fields, (Orthetrum sabina L. Odonata: Libellulidae), Andrallus spinidens F. Hemiptera: Pentatomidae, Dracula (Paederus fuscipes Curtis Coleoptera: Staphylinidae), Argiope spider (Argiope catenulata Doleschall Araneae: Araneidae( (Tetragnatha sp. Araneae: Tetragnathidae) and parasitoid wasps Trichogramma (Trichogramma brassicae Bezdenko Hymenoptera: Trichogrammatidae) were studied during 2, 7 and 14 days after spraying. The results showed that the above–mentioned insecticides had the highest and lowest adverse effects on natural enemies in 2 and 14 days after spraying, respectively. According to the present results and the standard rules of the International Organization for Biological Control, liquid fipronil SC5% insecticide among the three insecticides had the least effect on the natural enemies of rice fields by causing 3.78% mortality and ranked low risk to moderate risk. With the passage of time, the effect of the used insecticides, especially liquid fipronil, on natural enemies had a downward slope. Considering the history of long–term use of chemical insecticides such as diazinon granules against the rice striped stem borer in the paddy field of the north of the country (over five decades) and also because of its high toxicity, high toxicity and other negative consequences. For the farmers and the rice paddy ecosystem, the introduction of new insecticides will contribute significantly to reducing the above risks. Therefore, the use of liquid fepironil at a concentration of one liter per hectare, seems to have less adverse effects on beneficial insects in rice fields.
