In the present investigation, attempt was made to find out effective chemicals for the management of mulberry thrips, Pseudodendrothrips mori. Initially, selected chemical insecticides were assessed in laboratory (Acephate 75 SP, Acetamiprid 20 SP, Dimethoate 30 EC, Fipronil 5 SC, Imidacloprid 17.8 SC, Dichlorvos 76 EC (std check), Control (water spray). Based on laboratory results, promising insecticides at recommended concentrations were assessed in field against mulberry thrips. The results under the laboratory conditions revealed that all insecticides showed positive results on mortality of mulberry thrips from 1st day till 5th day of treatment.
