File Sesiidae Pheromon fg01.jpg thumb right Chamaesphecia empiformis Sesiidae on a pheromone trap A pheromone trap is a type of insect trap that uses pheromone s to lure insects . Sex pheromones and aggregating pheromones are the most common types used. A pheromone impregnated lure is encased in a conventional trap such as a Delta trap, water pan trap, or funnel trap. Sensitivity Pheromone traps are very sensitive, meaning they attract insects present at very low densities. They are often used to detect presence of exotic pest s, or for sampling, monitoring, or to determine the first appearance of a pest in an area. They can be used for legal control, and are used to monitor the success of the Boll Weevil Eradication Program and the spread of the gypsy moth . The fact that pheromone traps are highly species specific can also be an advantage, and they tend to be inexpensive and easy to implement. However, it is impractical in most cases to completely remove or trap out Pest organism pests using a pheromone trap. Some pheromone based pest control methods have been successful, usually those designed to protect enclosed areas such as households or storage facilities. There has also been some success in mating disruption . In one form of mating disruption, males are attracted to a powder containing female attractant pheromones. The pheromones stick to the males bodies, and when they fly off, the pheromones make them attractive to other males. It is hoped that if enough males chase other males instead of females, egg laying will be severely impeded. ref http www.thenakedscientists.com HTML content interviews interview 911 ref Some difficulties surrounding pheromone traps include sensitivity to bad weather, their ability to attract pests from neighboring areas, and the fact that they generally only attract adults although it is the juveniles in many species that are pests. ref http edis.ifas.ufl.edu IN080 ref They are also generally limited to one sex.

Refimprove date July 2008 Queen Mandibular Pheromone , or QMP , is a honey bee pheromone produced by the queen and fed to her attendants who share it with the rest of the colony that gives the colony the sense of being queenright. Chemically QMP is very diverse with at least 17 major components and other minor ones. 5 of these compounds are 9 ox 2 decenoic acid 9ODA cis & trans 9 hydroxydec 2 enoic acid 9HDA methyl p hydroxybenzoate HOB and 4 hydroxy 3 methoxyphenylethanol HVA . Newly emerged queens produce very little of this. By the sixth day they are producing enough to attract drones for mating. A laying queen makes twice that amount. QMP is responsible for inhibition of rearing replacement queens, attraction of drones for mating, stabilizing and organizing a swarm around the queen, attracting a retinue of attendants, stimulating foraging and brood rearing, and the general morale of the colony. Lack of it also seems to attract robber bees. Category Beekeeping bee stub ... more details
