Improved trap capture of Euschistus servus and Euschistus tristigmus (Hemiptera: Pentatomidae) in pecan orchards
Florida Entomologist 84 (4), 731-732
Abstract: Yellow pyramidal stink bug traps baited with the Euschistus spp. aggregation pheromone offer a more convenient method of sampling these pests than visual searches or knockdown insecticidal sprays. However, a high incidence of stink bugs that enter these traps may also escape. Addition of an insecticidal ear tag to the trap significantly improves capture by preventing escape.
