Lure core for prevention and control of cigarette beetles

Abstract

Belonging to the technical field of pest control, the invention discloses a lure core for prevention and control of cigarette beetles. During making the lure core of cigarette beetle sex pheromone, rubber or fiber is employed as the material to prepare a lure core carrier of cigarette beetles, the adding amount of a cigarette beetle sex attractant accounts for 0.0000010-15% of the total mass of the lure core carrier, the lure core carrier is soaked in a sex attractant liquid for 50-200min, then the lure core carrier is taken out to conduct natural ventilating drying, thus obtaining the lure core containing the cigarette beetle sex pheromone. The lure core provided by the invention has the characteristics of small environmental pollution, and reduced production cost. Thus, the cigarette beetle lure core involved in the invention has broad application prospects, is especially suitable for popularization and application to farmers, can reach the purposes of population monitoring and control, can minimize the loss of cigarette beetle hazard in China, and has obvious economic, social and ecological benefits.
