Abstract

This study was conducted to investigate the effect of different concentrations of ginger oil on the roles of Rhyzopertha dominica. The results showed: With a concentration of 8% after 48 hours of treatment, ginger oil had the highest mortality rate for the second larval instar, reaching 86.7%, and the lowest mortality rate for the second larval instar, 16.7% at a concentration of 2% after 24 hours of treatment. The lowest death rate for females was 0% at a concentration of 2% after 24 hours of therapy, reaching 86.7% after 72 hours at a dosage of 8%.
