Using pesticides to control mulberry pests and diseases is one of the main methods with high effectiveness, fast action, simple application, fewer regional restrictions, and suitability for large-scale use. However, because mulberry leaves are the feed for silkworms, improper use of pesticides can also affect silkworms: in mild cases it affects silkworm physiology, cocoon quality, and cocoon yield; in severe cases it causes poisoning and death. Therefore, the selection of pesticides in mulberry fields must be especially careful, and quite a few pesticides cannot be used or are prohibited.
