Small Cages with Insect Couples Provide a Simple Method for a Preliminary Assessment of Mating Disruption
Mating disruption by sex pheromones is a sustainable, effective and widely used pest management scheme. A drawback of this technique is its challenging assessment of effectiveness in the field (e.g., spatial scale, pest density). The aim of this work was to facilitate the evaluation of field-deploye...
