ABSTRACT:
A method and device for attracting insects involving the generation and/or release of particular amounts of carbon dioxide, in combination with an insecticide that does not repel such insects. Particular formulations as well as devices which incorporate such formulations for trapping, attracting and destruction of particular insects, including boring insects, such as termites and corn root worm insects, is set forth. Particular methods of administration of formulations and devices to enhance insect control and to prevent crop damage are disclosed.
