ABSTRACT

Insects are the most diverse organisms and beneficial to human beings. Apart from, some insects act as pests, directly damage the plants and indirectly transmit some viral disease to plants and as well as human beings.

For these circumstances, we need to look forward for use of biologically originated pesticides. Keeping in view, bio-rational pesticides are attracted attention in recent years.

However, this bio-rational pesticide not only effective in management of insect pests, but also it can reduce the pesticides lode into the environment and potential tool for sustainable integrated pest management (IPM) programme.
