Abstract
Series experiments were conducted to evaluate the impact of using vermicompost tea, vermicompost and their combination against T. urticae (Koch) beside investigated their effect on T. urticae reproduction under greenhouse conditions. Four different rates of vermicompost tea (50,100,150, and 200g) were added to soil by three different methods of application beside the combination of vermicompost and vermicompost tea. Data showed that the highest redaction percentage of T. urticae (96.7%) was obtained by using vermicompost rate (50g) to soil, while it was 95.83% by the using of vermicompost tea spray and its addition to soil. Whereas, the highest redaction percentage of T. urticae was achieved by using the combination of both vermicompost (50g) and (100g) with the using of spray vermicompost tea, where it was (96.2%) and (97.15%), respectively. In all treatments, there were significant differences in reducing T. urticae population on pepper between treatment and the check.
