Sanitation in and around seedbed and field, covering wet seedbed with nylon screen at a height of 60 cm, and simultaneous cropping were recommended. Seedbox treatment (with carbofuran, carbosulfan, or cartap G), soil incorporation of carbofuran G, frequent and alternative foliar sprays (with MIPC, cypermethrin, deltamethrin, and monocrotophos), and dusting of MIPC with a pipe duster showed promising results. Broadcasting of isazophos G also showed good results. Different methods should be integrated for this purpose.
