Abstract
The effect of extract application on Harmonia axyridis was studied. Topical application was found to cause only low mortality (15.2%) in the 2nd-3rd instar larvae. No significant negative effect of the extract on food intake, mortality or fertility of adults was recorded. Based on present knowledge, we can recommend extracts from A. archangelica seeds for the development and production of new botanical insecticides.
