Abstract;In order to examine effective pest control technology against Acusta despecta that fixed on the citrus tree, the authors examined food intake suppression effect by various copper agents. As a result, copper sulfate wettable powder and copper oxychloride wettable powder showed food intake suppression effect against Acusta despecta that harmed Citrus unshiu. When the effect of rainfall on food intake suppression effect was examined, the food intake suppression effect continued even at a point of about 800mm for copper sulfate and 400mm for copper chloride, as the accumulation amount of rainfall.
