35 Insecticide Summary Very effective products on the market Appear to be minimally disruptive to natural enemies Be aware of resistance issues Conventional program in 2011 should explore the use of larvicides, rather than focusing strictly on ovicidal activity

36 Treatment timing summary: 1 st generation: (One application for conventional; 2-3 for organic) Conventional and Organic: Egg hatch 2 nd generation: (One application for conventional; 2 for organic) Ovicides: 3-5 days after 1 st moth caught Larvicides: Egg hatch (~14 days after 1 st moth caught) 3 rd generation: Ovicides: Peak flight (Peak egg-laying) days after 1 st moth caught Mating disruption

37 Mating disruption 2oo dispensers per acre JK Clark

38 Mating Disruption Best as Area-wide program, when populations are low, and when not too steep Informatore Agrario #20, Italy, 1999 Pacific Biocontrol Corporation, Shin-Etsu Fine Chemicals Division

40 Guidelines for Use of Pheromone Traps in 2011 Jack K Clark Jack K Clark

41 Sticky traps with pheromone lures used to monitor male flight Craig Graffin

42 Guidelines for use of pheromone traps in 2011 Start trapping 2 weeks before budbreak At least one trap for every 5-10 acres Check once per week from bud break to harvest Lure manufacturers: Alpha Scents Suterra Trece

43 Males in traps generally retain their color Craig Graffin

44 Bait traps vs. Pheromone traps Food attractant vs. Sex attractant Apple juice No preservatives (no Vitamin C) Molasses + Wine + Vinegar Bait traps capture 1/5 of what pheromone traps catch Bait traps work better in warmer weather Equivalent to pheromone traps for following a flight, but pheromone traps are better for following population levels Useful in Europe (Management program) Not useful for Eradication program Likely remain experimental/research tool in 2011.

45 The Year in Review 2010 Jack K Clark Jack K Clark

46 The Year in Review Olive flower: host 1 st generation high population pressure No populations found in Riparian hosts Pheromone Traps: Excellent monitoring tool, when they are in high enough densities and in absence of mating disruption; at least one trap per 5-10 acres Bait traps: Apple juice, best and easiest to use, although bait traps remain a research tool

47 Insecticide Summary Very effective products on the market Appear to be minimally disruptive to natural enemies Be aware of resistance issues Explore the use of conventional larvicides, rather than relying strictly on Altacor and Intrepid as ovicides

48 Treatment timing summary: 1 st generation: (One application for conventional; 2-3 for organic) Conventional and Organic: Egg hatch 2 nd generation: (One application for conventional; 2 for organic) Ovicides: 3-5 days after 1 st moth caught Larvicides: Egg hatch (~14 days after 1 st moth caught) 3 rd generation: Ovicides: Peak flight (Peak egg-laying) days after 1 st moth caught Mating disruption
