Monitoring pickleworm (Lepidoptera : Pyralidae) moths with pheromone-baited traps
Journal of Economic Entomology 91 (4), 950-956
Abstract: Populations of male moths of pickleworm, Diaphania nitidalis (Stoll), were monitored using 5 types of traps baited with virgin female moths and several formulations of sex pheromone lures. Modified box traps and wire-cone traps were highly effective when baited with either synthetic lures or virgin females. Unitraps baited with virgin females were less effective than box or wire-cone traps, and unitraps were ineffective when baited with synthetic pheromone lures. Nylon-cone traps were less effective than wire-cone or box traps. Pherocon 1C sticky traps did not work with any lure.
