Abstract
During the mass trapping of the male lesser peach-tree borer, Synanthedon pictipes (Grote and Robinson), on Washington Island, WI (Wong et al. 1972), we needed a lightweight efficient trap that could be handcarried to remote areas, such as fence rows and woodlots that were infested with borers. The standard trap, though efficient, was too awkward and heavy for easy transportation. We, therefore, investigated the efficiency and practicality of a lightweight wing trap developed by Howell (1972) for use vs. the codling moth, Laspeyresia pomomella (L) (sold commercially by the Zoecon Corp. as Pherotrap I®).
