Abstract
Beneficial arthropod fauna was monitored in test plots of an olive grove in Madrid under four different control strategies against the olive fruit fly: trichlorfon bait sprays (trichlorfon + protein hydrolysate Nu-Lure®), spinosad bait sprays (Spintor Cebo®), kaolin sprays and mass-trapping (Easy-trap® + Nu-Lure®). A beating method was used to sample arthropoda from the five plots along 2005. Bait treatments (spinosad or trichlorfon) and mass-trapping did not cause significant effects on populations of beneficial arthropoda, but a reduction of parasitoids and predators was observed in samples from plots sprayed with kaolin. However, a longer time period of study will be necessary to confirm the effect of the different control strategies on the evolution of arthropod populations.
