FIELD TESTS OF THREE ALTERNATIVE INSECTICIDES WITH PROTEIN BAIT FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF AN INSECTICIDE ROTATION PROGRAM TO CONTROL MELON FLIES, ZEUGODACUS CUCURBITAE (COQUILLETT) (DIPTERA: TEPHRITIDAE)

High levels of resistance to the spinosad-based insecticidal protein bait GF-120 have been detected in some populations of melon fly, Zeugodacus cucurbitae (Coquillett) (Diptera: Tephritidae), in Hawaii in 2017.To provide cucurbit farmers in Hawaii with alternative insecticides, we field-tested the effectiveness of Agri-Mek SC (a.i., abamectin), Mu
