Abstract

Sticky traps developed at the Central Food Technological Institute in Mysore, India, baited with female pheromone were compared with a commercially available Zoecon Corporation trap for monitoring the stored products pest Sitotroga cerealella in rice stores at Mysore, India. The sticky trap was superior to the Zoecon trap but tended to collect dust on the sticky surface. The Zoecon traps dried out quickly.
