The lure may comprise a semiochemical such as a pheromone.

The package containing the semiochemical includes at least one portion that is permeable to the volatiles.

The semiochemical may be a sex pheromone that disrupts mating behavior of the adult-stage arthropod.

May use more than one semiochemical composition to address different insect pests.

Given the Kakapo's well-developed sense of smell, this scent may be a social chemosignal.

The most powerful semiochemical that triggers the keen sense of smell of Culex quinquefasciatus is nonanal.

Semiochemicals is the general name given to the chemicals the ants utilize for the purpose of establishing communication.

A trap for capturing an arthropod comprising a solid wax matrix and a semiochemical.

A semiochemical is a message-carrying chemical that is meant to attract, repel, and convey information.

cis-Jasmone has been discovered to be useful as a semiochemical that changes the behaviour of insects and/or the physiology of plants.

The arthropod to be controlled may be gypsy moths, in which case the semiochemical may be disparlure and the insecticide may be spinosad.

The invention relates to an arrangement for attracting insects, comprising an insect trap (1) which is equipped with a messenger (semi-chemical, such as for example pheromones).

The systems include a polymeric substrate, a semiochemical that is reactive upon an adult-stage arthropod, and an insecticide that is toxic to an immature- stage arthropod.

Between 95 and 99 degrees the cells in the plants are activated, send out a negative messenger substance, which is then forwarded to the next cell.

Below 95 degrees this effect is in fact not activated and at much higher temperatures the cells stick together and the negative messenger substance is not passed on.
