The toxicity of some insecticides to onion thrips (Thrips tabaci Lindeman) on Welsh onions in Kyoto Prefecture was evaluated at 25°C under a 15L-9D photoperiod. Among the 22 insecticides tested on female adults using the kidney bean leaf dipping method, benfuracarb MC, spinosad WP, spinetoram WP, tolfenpyrad EC, and pyridalyl WP were found to be highly effective. The toxic degree of other insecticides differed in each of the collected populations.
