Study on the effect of Bacillus thuringiensis (B.t. serotype H-14) and its toxins against Cephalopina titillator (Clark), the Egyptian camel myiasis producing dipterous fly.
Bacillus t. israelensis (B.t. serotype H-14) and its toxins have a marked lethal effect on both the eggs and the newly moulted 3rd stage larvae of Cephalopina titillator. The Bacillus was less effective than Bacillus and its toxins on both the eggs and larvae. On the other hand, the larvae were more affected by both Bacillus and Bacillus and its toxins than the eggs. Prolonged exposure time showed more lethal effect.
