Pyriproxyfen yellow tape formulation is a novel pesticide delivery system utilizing the whitefly's attraction to yellow color and pyriproxyfen's excellent transovarial ovicidal activity against whiteflies. The tape formulation attracts whiteflies by its yellow color causing the whiteflies to come into contact with pyriproxyfen, which initiates the transovarial ovicidal activity against whiteflies. The formulation has an excellent efficacy against whiteflies when the tape is applied horizontally along ridges as a preventive measure. The tape formulation has great advantages in reducing the grower's exposure to the toxicological effects of pesticides as well as reducing the environmental impact because this method offers whitefly control without spraying. This technology is also useful as a tool for integrated pest management (IPM).
