dc.description.abstractEvaluation of Ferrolure pheromone trap in combination with food baits consisting of 1 kg of sugarcane molasses + 5 grams of yeast + 5 ml of glacial acetic acid + split petioles of coconut taken in a bucket of 10 lit. capacity was placed @ one traplha. During the first fortnight of trap installation, 49 weevils (32 females and 17 males) were trapped. There was a decline in the catch (1 weevil) after two months of trap installation due to reduction in active ingredient of the pheromone compound in the lure. On replacement of new sachets, the number of weevils trapped increased to 22 in sixth fortnight. The results indicate that the pheromone trap Ferrolure aid in monitoring and controlling the weevils in a ecofriendly manner.en_US
