The invention discloses a method for preventing and treating
bacterial fruit blotch of watermelons, and relates to the technical field of watermelon
disease prevention and treatment. The method comprises the following steps that (1), first treatment is carried out, specifically, a botanical
pesticide composition and a bactericide are sprayed on leaf surfaces after the
disease blotch is found in the watermelon
seedling stage or in the middle and later periods of watermelon expansion; (2)
secondary treatment is carried out, specifically, a botanical
pesticide composition is sprayed on the leaf surfaces after 2-3 days of the first treatment. The botanical
pesticide composition is prepared from
thymol,
carvacrol and
menthol, and the
mass ratio of the
thymol to the
carvacrol to the
menthol is (8-20) to (4-12) to (1-2). The method for preventing and treating the
bacterial fruit blotch of the watermelons has the beneficial effects that the botanical pesticide composition is used as a core and is mixed or combined with the bactericide, the
disease blotch is dried up in the
seedling stage or middle and later periods of watermelon expansion within 24 hours after the composition is used, the microenvironment
humidity of the leaf surfaces and fruit surfaces is reduced, and the propagation of
pathogenic bacteria and the
prevalence of diseases are quickly blocked.
