Abstract
Four petroleum fractions extracts from solar, lubrication oil, kerosene and paraffin oil were treated on certain glass, polyethylene and cotton fabric (Dammur) to evaluate their efficiency and persistence against adults of Callosobruchus maculatus F. for different periods extending up to six months. Results revealed that the persistence of fractions on different surfaces had differed according to the type of surface used. Solar fraction was the most persistent followed by kerosene, lubrication oil then paraffin oil. Glass surface was the most ideal to retain toxicity followed by polyethylene and cotton fabric (dammur).
