A Modified New Whitefly Trap (CC Trap) to Increase Whitefly Adult Catches

C.C. Chu, T.J. Henneberry, M.A. Boykin and A.C. Cohen


 
ABSTRACT

Silverleaf whitefly monitoring to verify occurrence and assess population densities is an integral part of determining need for application of control strategies. We have developed a trap that attracts and catches whitefly adults. The numbers caught reflect seasonal change of adult activity and differences in population density. We are in the process of refining and improving the prototype trap. Several modifications have made that have significantly improved trap efficiency.
