Abstract
Pherocon® 1C sticky traps baited with pheromone became less attractive in time to males of the lesser peachtree borer, Synanthedon pictipes (Grote and Robinson), but could be made effective again with fresh pheromone. The baited traps decreased in attractiveness with time; the oldest traps and pheromone were the least attractive. The largest number of males was caught when both traps and pheromone were replaced every 3 wk.This publication has 3 references indexed in Scilit:
