Abstract
Possible control of Oryzaephilus surinamensis infestation on date palm (Phoenix dactyliferai using oil palm inflorescence ash and hermetic storage technique combined with Oil Palm Inflorescence Ash (OPIA) treatment were conducted in the Entomology Laboratory, Department of Zoology, University of Ibadan, Oyo state, Nigeria. Relative efficacy of oil palm inflorescence ash at 0.625 g 125 g and 1.25 g 125 g and 3 bags layer hermetic storage technique combined with oil palm inflorescence ash tl.625 g125 g and 1.25g/25 g were tested on pristine and simulated date. The experiments were laid out in a completely randomized design and each treatment replicated four times for 5 and 10 weeks exposure periods. Result showed that oil palm inflorescence ash recorded adult mortality of (IO.OO±O.OO) and (9.00±0.41) at 1.25 g, while (8.00±1.68) and (7.00±O.71) were recorded at 0.625 g after five weeks of exposure on both pristine and simulated date respectively. At 1.25 g concentration, reductions in larval and adult emergence were recorded. Combination of 3 bags layer hermetic storage technique with oil palm inflorescence ash treatment was highly effective with higher adult mortality, lower larval and adult emergence. Combined treatment of oil palm inflorescence ash and hermetic storage technique was found to have signi ficant di fference when compared to only oil palm inflorescence ash treatment at p
