Zusammenfassung:	Illustrative embodiments of integrated pest management (IPM) systems and electronic insect monitoring devices (EIMDs) are disclosed. In some embodiments, the EIMDs may each comprise a lure for attracting at least one target insect species, one or more sensors configured to generate one or more output signals in response to an individual insect approaching the lure, and an electronic controller configured to count a number of individual insects approaching the lure. In some embodiments, the IPM system may comprise a plurality of EIMDs configured to communicate over a wireless network shared by the plurality of EIMDs.
