English Abstract

Native to tropical Asia, the peach fruit fly is spreading to other regions of the world including the Middle East.

The fly seriously damages a variety of commercially valuable crops Infested areas incur high production costs due to extra labor and material needed for controlling and eradicating the pest Producers deploy costly commodity treatments to meet trade requirements.

Inevitable increases in pesticide use can adversely impact the environment.

International cooperation of regulatory agencies is vital in mitigating the risk of pest spread.

Success in preventing the establishment of invasive Suit flies in California is a result of high degree of integration between pest exclusion, early detection, and fast eradication response.

Numerous infestations by Bactrocera species, including four breeding populations of peach fruit fly have been eradicated using a combination of methods including Male Annihilation Technique (MAT), foliar and soil pesticide treatments, and fruit removal.

Intensive monitoring follows to verify effectiveness of eradication egons.
