Summary: Experimentos de campo em 2001 e 2005 foram conduzidos para determinar a eficácia de diversos inseticidas no controle da Tuta absoluta e o impacto desse controle na ocorrência das demais pragas do tomateiro. Os inseticidas testados assim como as respectivas doses por 100 litros de água foram: espinosade 4,8; 6,0; 7,2 g. i.a. com e sem Break Thru 0,03% v/v; clorfenapir 12,0 g. i.a.; emamectina 2,0 g i.a. com Joint Oil 0,25 % v/v e indoxacarbe 4,8 g i.a. com Joint Oil 0,25 % v/v. O delineamento experimental foi de blocos ao acaso com 4 repetições por tratamento sendo avaliado o complexo de pragas semanalmente. Todos os produtos testados, com exceção do espinosade sem Break Thru, foram eficientes no controle da T. absoluta. Considerando-se o complexo de pragas, espinosade + Break Thru mostrou-se ser o melhor tratamento no manejo da mosca-minadora Liriomyza spp. Field studies were conducted on 2001 and 2005 to determine the effectiveness of several insecticides in controlling Tuta absoluta and the impact of this control on the occurrence of other pests on tomato. The tested insecticides with their respective rates per 100 liters of water were: spinosad 4.8, 6.0, 7.2 g. a.i. with and without Break Thru 0.03% v/v; chlorfenapyr 12.0 g. a.i., emamectin 2.0 g. a.i. with Joint Oil 0.25 % v/v e indoxacarb 4.8 g. a.i. with Joint Oil 0.25 % v/v. The experiment was designed as randomized complete block with 4 replications per treatment. Trials were evaluated on a weekly basis. All tested treatments, except spinosad without Break Thru, were effective to control T. absoluta. Considering the pest complex, spinosad + Break Thru was the best treatment mainly because of the best overall performance on the serpentine leafminer Liriomyza spp.
