ABSTRACT:
A method and apparatus for controlling the populations of harmful arthropods. The method employs a decoy shaped like a female arthropod which includes a volatile sex attractant pheromone and a mounting pheromone which, in combination, induce mating behavior in arthropods. The decoy also includes a pesticide encapsulated therein which contaminates male arthropods upon physical contact with the decoys.
