The discovery of specific sexual pheromon (VOERMAN S. and collaborators, 1978; SZÖCS G. and collaborators, 1989) opened the perspective for catching the male adults from their natural living space, offering the possibility of clearing up the aspects of pairing, and investigation of some aspects about population evolution, things that make the link with some other biologic growing phases, like: laying down the eggs, the larvae out coming. The research method consist in using standard sticky traps made by Chemistry Research Institute „Raluca Ripan” Cluj-Napoca, witch were tooled up with seven synthetic pheromone types. The experiment performed over three years since 2006 in The Fruit-growing Research and Development Resort Bistriţa in cooperation with Chemistry Research Institute „Raluca Ripan” Cluj-Napoca and University of Agricultural Sciences and Veterinary Medicine Cluj-Napoca. From that seven types of pheromones used as baits, the most valuable, proved to be V6 (Z3, Z13 – 18 Ac 100% 0,1 mg) witch showed the biggest selectivity of appeal, the biggest appeal power, longevity and long lasting uniformity of the appeal power.
