  • CORETRAP is a nylon-mesh cone trap specifically designed to capture adults of the European Corn Borer (ECB - Ostrynia nubilalis) and other similar moths (Heliotis armigera, Autographa gamma, Chrysodeixis chalcites, Mythinna uniouncta, Sesamia nonagrioides).
  • The trap is typically baited with specific pheromones (ecotype E, Z, or EZ) and phenylacethaldeide (PAA) for capturing ECB males and females, respectively. A large body of research has demonstrated that monitoring the flight of ECB females would be helpful in designing strategies for a successful control of this pest. Obviously, CORETRAP can also be baited with other specific pheromones for capturing the other above mentioned moths.
  • CORETRAP is a robust, durable, ease to use and to transport trap. CORETRAP is easily installed in just a few minutes. Trapsare equipped with a basket cylinder which can be capped and transported to lab thus facilitating enumeration of captured months and further manipulations (see trap scheme).
  • Riff98 would also provide a DNA service for analyzing selected fragment of ECB DNA isolated from adults or larvae. DNA sequence would be helpful for a correct identification of ecotypes (E, Z, E-Z). DNA service is rapid, accurate and low costing.
