Comparison of Sticky and Non-Sticky Trap Designs Baited with the Pheromone for Catching the Olive Fly Bactrocera (Dacus) oleae Gmelin

Sticky “cloak” traps (CSALOMON® PAL) baited with the synthetic pheromone racemic 1, 7- dioxaspiro[ 5.5]undecane were most efficient among the trap designs tested for catching male olive fly Bactrocera (Dacus) oleae Gmelin (Diptera, Tephritidae) in field tests in Croatia. Colour cues did not influence male catches. Consequently transparent sticky “cloak” traps baited with pheromone appear to be the best choice for detection and monitoring of males of the olive fly in Croatia. Female flies did not respond to the pheromone, however, were weakly attracted to the visual cues of yellow and fluorescent yellow.
