Modelling of pheromone flow from insect traps [PDF]

open access: yesAustralasian Fluid Mechanics Conference (AFMC), 2020
The Brown Marmorated Stink Bug (BMSB) Halyomorpha halys is an unwanted invasive species. Its entry and establishment in New Zealand would result in significant production impacts in the horticultural industry. Current BMSB traps are A4 size sticky panels with aggregation pheromone as a lure. These traps are affordable, but inefficient.
