The effects of six spiracle-blocking insecticides on the camellia spiny whitefly Aleurocanthus camelliae (Hemiptera: Aleyrodidae) in tea fields were evaluated. Compared with the protective value of the control insecticide, tolfenpyrad (100%), that of all the spiracle-blocking insecticides was lower. Of the six insecticides tested, hydroxypropyl distarch had the highest protective value (64.2%).
