Abstract : Diacrisia obliqua Walker (Lepidoptera: Arctiidae) is a phytophagous insect causing great loss to different crops. To control these pest different concentrations of dipel were administered by Leaf Dip Method and Topical Method. It was observed that dipel reduces the percentage of pupation in larva. It prolongs the larval and pupal period. It causes a clear reduction in emergence of adult insect.
