Evaluation of mating disruption for box tree moth area-wide control programs

2023
Abstract: We report the results from two years of field testing in 2021 and 2022 of an experimental mating disruption (MD) product for possible use in an operational control program to eradicate or slow the spread of BTM in the United States. The product was developed by TRECE* based on their CideTraktm meso-dispenser system, a solid rubberized plastic

Sex pheromone traps for detection of the invasive box tree moth in Italy

2015
The efficacy of sex pheromone traps for Cydalima perspectalis (Walker) (Lepidoptera Crambidae) box tree moth (BTM) was assessed in 2013 and 2014 in North East Italy (Parco Giardino Sigurtà, Valeggio sul Mincio, Verona). In 2013 male moths were trapped during their last flight of the year.
