BACKGROUND: The chemosterilisation technique has been demonstrated to reduce the population and fruit damage of the
Mediterranean fruit fly, Ceratitis capitata (Wiedemann), in citrus orchards. Field trials showed efficacy by reducing the fruit fly
population, which was progressively achieved by continuous application of lufenuron to several generations. Different authors
have suggested that field trials should be carried out in isolated or wide areas in order to reduce fruit fly intrusion and obtain
best results. To this end, a wide-area trial over 3600 hectares has been under investigation in Valencia (Spain) since 2002 to
validate the chemosterilisation technique against the fruit fly. The whole area was treated with 24 traps ha−1, using more than
86 000 traps in the field trial.
RESULTS: A continuous decrease in fruit fly population was observed over the 4 years under trial. Moreover, results showed a
significant reduction in persimmon damage in the chemosterilant treatment area compared with a malathion aerial treatment
area. In the case of citrus damage, no significant differences were obtained between malathion and chemosterilant treatments.
CONCLUSION: The chemosterilantmethod reducesMediterranean fruit fly populations, and therefore it is a candidate treatment
to replace aerial treatments with insecticides in order to suppress this pest. In addition, the efficacy of chemosterilant treatment
is increasing year after year. The possibility of using this technique combined with other control methods is discussed.
