• Both CS and EC formulations were more effective on wheat or maize than on rice against Sitophilus oryzae and Tribolium confusum.
• S. oryzae and Rhyzopertha dominica were the most and least susceptible species, respectively.
• CS gave in most cases similar results to EC.
Laboratory bioassays were conducted to evaluate the insecticidal effect of two pirimiphos-methyl formulations, an emulsifiable concentrate (EC) and a capsule suspension (CS) against adults of Sitophilus oryzae, Rhyzopertha dominica and Tribolium confusum in wheat, maize and rice. Pirimiphos-methyl was applied at two dose rates, 2 and 4 ppm, and adult mortality was measured after 2, 7, 14 and 21 days of exposure in the treated commodity. Progeny production was assessed 65 d after the removal of the parental adults. S. oryzae adult survival was significantly higher in rice than in wheat and maize, whereas T. confusum mortality was significantly higher in maize than in the other grains. From the species tested, the most susceptible species was S. oryzae, for which mortality reached 100% after 7 days of exposure in treated wheat and maize, followed by T. confusum and R. dominica. Progeny production was significantly suppressed by pirimiphos-methyl in the case of S. oryzae, but not in the case of R. dominica. In general, only few differences in performance between the EC and the CS formulation were detected. We conclude that the type of grain commodity significantly affects mortality after the application of the two pirimiphos-methyl formulations tested, but this effect is species-dependent.
