            Abstract

            This study evaluated the effect of banana bunch cover with and without the protection of insecticides in the control of the corky scab thrips Frankliniella brevicaulis. The experiment was carried out at a banana crop in Corupá, Santa Catarina State, Brazil. The experimental design used was completely randomized with six treatments and five repetitions. The treatments were: 1) control test (without bag cover or insecticide protection); 2) polyethylene bag cover; 3) polyethylene bag cover with protection of neem oil 1%; 4) polyethylene bag cover with the protection of garlic and pepper solution 0.6%; 5) polyethylene bag cover with the protection of insecticide imidacloprid; and 6) polypropylene bag cover. The polyethylene banana bunch cover with the protection of insecticides imidacloprid and neem oil were more efficient in the control of thrips, while the treatment with polypropylene bag was not efficient
            against the pest.
