“…In the detailed experiments by Brødsgaard (1989), blue colour proved to be the most attractive, but it seems that different shades of blue show differences in attractiveness. In contrast to our results and those mentioned above, Gharekhani et al (2014) showed that yellow traps were more appropriate for monitoring onion thrips in garlic, onion and tomato crops. In turn, Jenser et al (2001) reported that although yellow traps caught specimens of onion thrips in high numbers, a significant difference was not established in the attractiveness between yellow and blue traps in tobacco crops.…”

“…Pobozniak (2013) has determined 18 species of thrips on pea crops, of which three herbivorous species (Frankliniella intonsa, Thrips fuscipennis and Thrips tabaci) and one predatory species (Aeolothrips intermedius) together accounted for over 95% of the total number of all detected thrips. Among the known herbivorous thrips species, the onion thrips (T. tabaci) is the primary pest of pea pods (Gaskel 1997;Pobozniak 2013). On pods, the formation of silvery spots, which later turn brown, can be clearly seen, and the pods undergo deformation primarily from the spout and at the base.…”

We compared the effectiveness of three different trap colours (blue, yellow and white) to identify the optimal trap colour for the monitoring of the thrips Frankliniella intonsa, Thrips tabaci, Thrips fuscipennis and Aeolothrips intermedius in the three pea cultivars, namely Polar, Izolda and Tarchalska. The number of captured thrips specimens was significantly affected by trap colour, pea cultivar and interaction between these factors. The two most attractive trap base colours for thrips were blue (peak at 450 nm) and yellow (peak at 550 nm). Irrespective of the pea cultivar, most F. intonsa were captured on the blue and yellow traps. Blue traps were the most attractive to T. fuscipennis and T. tabaci, followed by yellow and white ones, and yellow traps were most attractive to A. intermedius. More thrips were caught on the traps located in the plots with cultivars characterised by a longer growing season Tarchalska and Izolda, which were inhabited by large numbers of thrips. There was a significant interaction effect between trap colour and pea cultivar on the number of caught F. intonsa and T. fuscipennis in both years and for T. tabaci in 2010. Overall, among the tested trap colours, blue traps were the most effective ones for monitoring thrips in pea fields and could be used as an early detection tool. Yellow traps may be risky because they reduce population densities of the predaceous A. intermedius in pea fields, thus leading to an increase in pest numbers.

“…In cotton field, yellow sticky traps were found most attractant of thrips followed by green, pale yellow and white traps. Gharekhani et al (2014) suggestions are in line with the current study. Prema et al (2018) have reported similar findings.…”

Entomology Journal publishes original research papers and reviews from any entomological discipline or from directly allied fields in ecology, behavioral biology, Various type of sticky traps is frequently used for monitoring the sucking pests like jassid, aphid, whitefly, and thrips. Light traps and pheromones traps are species specific and commonly used for capturing the moths such as Spodoptera litura, Helicoverpa armigera and Leucinodes orbonalis. The sucking and chewing are very destructive pests of various crops such as cotton, cabbage, brinjal, okra, tomato and onion all over the world, Insect pests are controlled by various methods but insecticides are commonly used method to control these pests. A filed experiment was conducted to determine the attraction of insect pests to different sticky traps like red, blue, yellow, orange, pale yellow-green and white while light and pheromone traps also installed to capture the Spodoptera litura, Helicoverpa armigera and Leucinodes orbonalis moths during 2019. The study showed that that yellow sticky traps were the most effective for monitoring and managing thrips and whiteflies in cotton crops. In brinjal crop, the highest adult population of thrips, whitefly, jassid, and aphid was 139, 13, 29 and 13 per card, respectively were recorded on green traps. Light traps and pheromone traps were proved effective control against chewing insect pests especially Spodoptera litura followed by Helicoverpa armigera and Leucinodes orbonalis. The current study concluded that eco-friendly and natural approaches such as use of traps are helpful in pest management on agricultural crops.

“…Green, purple, yellow, and black sticky traps can attract whitefly and thrips population in okra crop (Wagan et al 2017). Most insects attract if the colored cards are at a height of 70cm or above (Gharekhani, et al 2014). The crop vegetative and reproductive growth was normal and frequently increased with increased of time during our study.…”

Okra is the most familiar and widely known for its edible fruits. Several sucking and chewing insect species infest okra crop in the field. The field study was conducted to determine the attraction of four different colored traps to aphids in okra field. It is hoped that the information from this study will be able to help in the monitoring and management of these pests, as well as enhance integrated pest management programs in Pakistan and other countries with similar ecological conditions. The okra seeds were sown on both sides of well-prepared ridges. Red, blue, green and white colored sheets of sticky paper placed in the field with the help of bamboo stakes. The aphids were counted on sticky cards after 24 hours of their application. Aphid population appeared on okra from first week of observation and remained until last observation. Red colored attract maximum number of aphids, followed by green, white and blue. Plant vegetative and reproductive growth increased regularly with increase of crop age.
