Abstract
In the Republic of Bashkortostan, the gypsy moth (Lymantria Dispar) periodically causes economic damage, in order to monitor it in the conditions of the Birsky district, glue traps with dispensers containing artificial sex pheromone cis-7,8-epoxy-2-methyloctadecane or (+)-disparlure, which was synthesized by the laboratory of insect bioregulators of the Ufa Institute of Chemistry of the Ufa Academy of Sciences, were used. During May-June 2021, it was found that traps with dispensers attract harmful insects compared to untreated controls. Traps with pheromones are not toxic, but warning labels were used to preserve them. A monitoring program with the use of a disparlure is proposed to detect populations, assess their density and select the optimal timing of treatment with pesticides, which will significantly reduce the environmental burden on the environment and preserve beneficial insects.
