Performance of Trap Designs, Lures, and Kill Strips for the Boll Weevil (Coleoptera: Curculionidae)

A series of experiments was conducted to determine the most effective traps, lures, and kill strips for deploying against the boll weevil, Anthonomus grandis grandis Boheman. The results indicated that Hardee traps or the Hercon Boll Weevil Scout baited with either of two 2-wk lures were comparable...

Zusammenfassung:A series of experiments was conducted to determine the most effective traps, lures, and kill strips for deploying against the boll weevil, Anthonomus grandis grandis Boheman. The results indicated that Hardee traps or the Hercon Boll Weevil Scout baited with either of two 2-wk lures were comparable and the best combinations for use in boll weevil monitoring and eradication programs. Either kill strip used in traps was equally effective and is recommended for convenience in servicing traps.
