“…The results of the UK trials corroborated previous studies that showed application of Lurem-TR™ increases mean sticky trap catches of F. occidentalis (Teulon et al , 2007 ; Broughton and Harrison, 2012 ; Muvea et al ., 2014 ; Teulon et al, 2014 ; Broughton et al ., 2015 ). The (S) -(−)-verbenone treatments significantly increased trap catches at all concentrations, demonstrating the sensitivity of F. occidentalis to the compound, as previously demonstrated by electrophysiological and behavioural laboratory based assays (Abdullah et al , 2014 ).…”

Monitoring of pest populations is an essential component of integrated pest management. An early warning system helps growers decide when best to take control measures, or when to alter them, should a control method prove inadequate. Studies have shown that adding chemical attractants to sticky cards can increase trap catch of western flower thrips, Frankliniella occidentalis, a global pest of agriculture and horticulture, giving more accurate accounts of population size and dynamics, thus leading to more efficient monitoring. We identify a novel semiochemical to the species, (S)-(−)-verbenone, showing that addition of this compound to sticky traps significantly increased F. occidentalis catch in two geographically distinct populations, infesting two unrelated crops of global economic importance. We validate through field trials that (S)-(−)-verbenone is highly attractive to F.occidentalis and can be used with blue sticky traps to enhance trap catch, leading to better estimations of pest population densities. The compound may be used in other control methods against F.occidentalis such as lure and kill, mass trapping and push-pull.Electronic supplementary materialThe online version of this article (doi:10.1186/s40064-015-0864-3) contains supplementary material, which is available to authorized users.

“…Blending two or more attractive compounds to increase their attractiveness would seem an obvious step towards trap efficiency improvement. However, blends of two structurally distinct attractants, panisaldehyde and methyl isonicotinate did not result in a higher number of T. tabaci caught compared to catches in traps baited with either compound alone [52]. The authors of the study suggested that T. tabaci has only one odour receptor that reacts to both chemicals used in this trial.…”

This review covers aspects of putting essential oil compounds to use either as allelochemicals that manipulate the host selection process of Thysanopteran pest species or as botanical insecticides that kill these pests. Thysanoptera (thrips) make an especially interesting case study in this field, because their increasing economic impact puts some urgency on the development of novel control strategies, especially strategies that incorporate natural compounds. Known facts about the host selection behaviour of thrips are briefly summarized, and methods for the evaluation of thrips responses to volatile and non-volatile plant compounds are outlined. Recent results on the search for attractive and repellent volatiles and for feeding and/or oviposition deterrent essential oil compounds are listed in detail and their potential for use in control strategies against thrips pests is discussed. An overview of plant essential oils used either for insecticidal spraying treatments of crops or for fumigation of crops in greenhouses or fumigation chambers completes the picture of bioactivities. Finally, an outlook on the perspectives for future control strategies against thrips pests is given, including thoughts on the direction of further research needed to fully evaluate the thrips control potential of plant essential oils.

“…The thrips lure in yellow sticky traps (20.63) was found highly significant over the yellow sticky traps (0.81) against thrips as p value is less than 0.05 (Table 4). Teulon et al (2007) for T. tabaci the mixtures of para-anisaldehyde and methyl isonicotinate proved to be only as strong as the most powerful lure for the thrips. The whitefly lure was not found to be significant against the yellow sticky traps.…”

Field experiment was conducted to evaluate the effectiveness of whitefly and thrips lure in yellow stick traps in major horticultural crops in IRD station, Dahachowk & Nala, Nepal. This experiment was carried out from June to September, 2019. Six major horticultural crops have been selected. In each cropping area yellow sticky traps with whitefly lure, yellow sticky traps with thrips lure and yellow sticky traps only has been setup. Weekly data of insects has been recorded with the help of hand lens. In yellow sticky traps wide range of insects whitefly, thrips, leaf miner, winged aphids, housefly, fungus gnats, fruit fly, Tuta absoluta whereas, some beneficial insects as bee, wasp, beetle has been monitored. Analysis of variance was carried out as per the procedures given in R-STATC statistical computer package for the paired two T- tests. Thrips lure has shown significant result against thrips whereas whitefly lure doesn’t show any notable effects against whitefly over yellow sticky traps. Further research on such lure will be valuable for the farmers in different agro-climatic locations of the country for validation.
