Quarantine disinfestation of 'Hass' avocados against bactrocera tryoni (Diptera: Tephritidae) with a hot fungicide dip followed by cold storage

Hass avocados were infested artificially with immature life stages of Queensland fruit fly, Bactrocera tryoni syn Dacus tryoni (Froggatt), dipped for 3 min in 500 ppm benomyl at 46°C, allowed to dry, and stored at 1.0 greater minor 0.2°C. Dose-mortality data from infested fruit held in cold storage for up to 7 d showed that the third instars were the most tolerant to treatment. None of greater 200,000 third instars infesting 'Hass' avocados survived to population after hot fungicide dip and storage at 1°C for 15.63 d.
