How to use pheromones in pest pistachio shell controlThe greatest motivation for studying pheromones is due to their application in pest control management; One of the most important uses of pheromones is tracking, which can be used to identify the time of emergence of insects, how to increase the population of the insect and its presence or absence.
This action is possible by using pheromone traps (Izadi and Sami, 2010). The purpose of tracking is to detect and monitor pest populations using pheromones. Based on this, the time of emergence and the process of population density of adult insects are evaluated.
