O Tuta absoluta e tipi lau tamato e manatu o le fa'ama'i tamato pito sili ona leaga i Aikupito.Ua lipotia mai i Aikupito talu mai le 2009, ma ua vave ona avea ma se tasi o faʻamaʻi autu o fua o tamato.Pe a fafaga e larvae le faʻalauteleina o minerale o lau mesophyll, e tupu faʻaleagaina, lea e aʻafia ai le gafatia o le photosynthetic o fualaʻau ma faʻaitiitia ai a latou fua.
Ua faailoa mai e saienitisi i le Iunivesite o Nangu ni iniseti se lima e faʻaogaina ai le faʻaogaina o laʻau i lalo o tulaga suʻesuʻe, e taʻua o indoxacarb, abamectin + thiamethoxam, amimectin benzoate, fipronil ma imidacloprid Le aʻafiaga o larvae paʻepaʻe uliuli atoatoa.
Na taʻua e saienitisi: “O iʻuga ua faaalia ai o amimectin benzoate e sili ona oona i faʻamaʻi faʻamaʻi, ae o le imidacloprid e sili ona oona."
I le faʻasologa o le faʻaitiitia o le aoga, o vailaʻau faʻamaʻi faʻataʻitaʻiina o loʻo faʻatulagaina e pei ona taua i lalo: ampicillin benzoate, fipronil, abamectin + thiamethoxam, indoxacarb ma imidacloprid.Ole tau tutusa ole LC50 ile 72 itula ole 0.07, 0.22, 0.28, 0.59 ma le 2.67 ppm, ae o le LC90 o le 0.56, 3.25, 1.99, 4.69 ma le 30.29 ppm.
Na faaiʻu e saienitisi: "O a matou suʻesuʻega e faʻamaonia ai o le enamostine benzoate e mafai ona faʻaaogaina e avea o se tuufaatasiga lelei i le polokalame pulega atoatoa e pulea ai lenei faʻamaʻi."

O lo'o e mauaina lenei fa'amalama pop-up ona o lau asiasiga muamua lea i la matou upega tafa'ilagi.Afai e te mauaina pea lenei fe'au, fa'amolemole fa'aaga kuki i lau su'esu'ega.
