Callosobruchus chinensis (L.) is most destructive pest of chickpea in storage. Among the botanicles, garlic Allium sativum (L.) has been observed as promising insecticide in stores. The garlic products/components were evaluated for their efficacy and persistence against pulse beetle Callosobruchus chinensis (L.) in chickpea in the Department of Entomology, CCS Haryana Agricultural University, Hisar. The garlic products were mixed with 250g chickpea seeds separately in a round bottom flask (2-liter capacity). There were total of 13 treatments viz, garlic oil (0.5 & 1.5 %), methanol, hexane, chloroform and acetone extracts (2 & 3%), garlic powder (2 & 4 %) and, control (treated with acetone alone). The treated seeds (250 g) of each treatment were kept in separate glass jars. Ten pairs of freshly emerged pulse beetles (0 to 24 h old) released in each glass jar. Percent seed damage, number of holes, number of eggs laid and

percent egg reduction recorded at monthly interval by drawing a sample of 100 seeds randomly from each treatment in three replications. Among all the treatments, Only garlic oil 1.5% protected the chickpea seeds up to 6 months. In this treatment no seed damage, holes or egg laying were observed up to end of the experiment. Whereas garlic oil 0.5% and methanol extract 3% were effective up to two months. Rest of the treatments were less effective even after one month of treatment.
