Evaluate fiber pheromone formulations for behavioral control and attract & kill possibilities for leafrollers and codling moth. 3. Evaluate an attract & kill technology LastCall formulation for leafrollers in large field trials for efficacy and rate effect. 4. Develop a bait & kill system for control of lacanobia fruitworm and assess the impact on other noctuids in orchards. (Not addressed due to lack of pest importance) 5. Evaluate the potential of a new flake pheromone formulation for CM control.
