description Mango is an economically important crop in Mexico, important population increases of mango white scale Aulacaspis tubercularis have been observed. The application of attractive nutritionalsupplements to arrest and/or attract predators of A. tubercularis were evaluated during two seasons. Application of 0.25 mL of methyl salicilate per tree has an effect on the number of eggs of Ceraeochrysa spp. Adults of Pentilia spp were lured whit different doses of methy salicilate (MS). Whit 4 mL of MS per tree, 60% fewer groups of A. tubercularis nymphs occurred. In the first year, adults of the predator Chilochorus cacti were no observed, but in the second year, the use of sugar, yeast and powdered milk had an attractive effect. More eggs of Ceraeochrysa spp were observed when water plus yeast plus sugar treatments were applied. At two sites, nymphs of A. tubercularis decreased in the second year, inthe first site decrease reached 65.6% while in the second site it was 93% in comparison to the untreated controls. The observed abatement is attributed to a general increase in predator numbers and their action on pest population.

El mango es un cultivo importante en México, en años recientes se ha observado un incremento poblacional de Aulacaspos tubercularis en este frutal. Se evaluaron atrayentes y suplementos alimenticios para retener y/o atraer depredadores de A. tubercularis en dos ciclos de producción (2009-2010). Se observó mayor efecto de tratamientos en la variable huevos de Ceraeochrysa con el uso de0.25 mL de salicilato de metilo (SM) por árbol. Adultos de Pentilia fueron ligeramente atraídos con las diferentes dosis de SM. Con el uso de 4 mL de SM por árbol, se observó 60% menos colonias de ninfas de A. tubercularis comparado con el testigo absoluto. En el primer año de evaluación no se observaron adultos de Chilochorus cacti, en cambio en el segundo año en los tratamientos con azúcar, levadura de cerveza y leche nido en polvo si se presentaron. Con la aplicación de suplementos alimenticios a base de agua + levadura de cerveza y azúcar, se observó una diferencia numérica importante de huevos de Ceraeochrysa sp. El número de colonias de A. tubercularis por hoja, claramente disminuyó en el segundo año de evaluación en ambos sitios, en el sitio uno la disminución de colonias en promedio fue de 65.6% y para el sitio dos fue de un 93%. Esta disminución podría ser el resultado de un incremento general de los depredadores y la acción conjunta de estos sobre las colonias de escamas.
