Abstract
Tbe effect of various oils under tbe varied Iigbt conditions on tbe
residual toxicity of pyretbrins was studied using Tribolium castaneum. Oils
of coconut, groundnut, castor, mustard and neem were effective upto 49 days
under partial darkness. Pyretbrins and sesame oil under complete darkness
retained the residual toxicity upto 6 months. The toxicity of llyretbrins in
tbe presence of oils was thus observed to be improved by partial darkness and
much more by complete darkness.
