“…Although light and pheromone alone were similarly attractive, the simultaneous presence of both stimuli synergistically improved the attractiveness. This result is consistent with a previous investigation where the combination of fluorescent blue light and aggregation pheromone increased mid-season H. halys trapping in mid-Atlantic sites of the US [ 24 ]. Modification of the trap design consisted of the addition of an electric fan.…”

“…Before becoming invasive, little information was available on the best monitoring tools to be used for H. halys [ 22 ]. Sweep netting and visual counts were usually employed [ 23 ] but often with uncertain results because of stink bugs’ strong dispersal ability [ 24 ]. The identification of the two-component aggregation pheromone of H. halys [ 25 ] and the demonstrated synergistic effect of the aggregation pheromone of another Asian stink bug, Plautia stali Scott [ 26 ], has provided important insight for pest monitoring.…”

Capture strategies for the brown marmorated stink bug, Halyomorpha halys (Hemiptera: Pentatomidae), are challenging. Here we developed and evaluated a multimodal trap which combines visual and olfactory stimuli. Visual stimuli consisted of LEDs emitting UV-A and visible light. Olfactory stimuli were comprised of the synthetic aggregation pheromone and odours from trapped H. halys individuals. Stink bug attraction at different wavelengths was evaluated in laboratory two-choice bioassays, and different prototypes of the trap were tested in 2021 in natural, agricultural, and urban settings. Traps with a combination of UV-A and blue or green visible wavelengths provided higher H. halys attraction (up to ~8-fold) compared to traditional sticky or small pyramidal traps. The concurrent presence of synthetic pheromone and LED had a synergistic effect on H. halys positive phototaxis. Further development and implementation of the multimodal trap is discussed for prospective use in attract-and-kill or push–pull strategies.

“…Ground-deployed pyramid traps equipped with compact fluorescent white-, black-, and bluewavelength-restricted light bulbs led to season-long captures of adults but not nymphs, with captures peaking about mid-summer and declining thereafter (82) with or without pheromone lures present (125). Because BMSB will not fly when temperatures are below 15 • C (73), there are limitations to using light traps as a monitoring tool.…”

The brown marmorated stink bug (BMSB), Halyomorpha halys (Stål), is an invasive pentatomid introduced from Asia into the United States, Canada, multiple European countries, and Chile. In 2010, BMSB populations in the mid-Atlantic United States reached outbreak levels and subsequent feeding severely damaged tree fruit as well as other crops. Significant nuisance issues from adults overwintering inside homes were common. BMSB is a highly polyphagous species with a strong dispersal capacity and high reproductive output, potentially enabling its spread and success in invaded regions. A greater understanding of BMSB biology and ecology and its natural enemies, the identification of the male-produced aggregation pheromone, and the recognition that BMSB disperses into crops from adjacent wooded habitats have led to the development of behavior-based integrated pest management (IPM) tactics. Much is still unknown about BMSB, and continued long-term collaborative studies are necessary to refine crop-specific IPM programs and enhance biological control across invaded landscapes.

“…A study using a blue (435 nm) light attractant, with or without pheromone, revealed that mid-season BMSB captures were relatively low without the light cue (Rice et al 2017). Nonetheless, in an experiment with pheromone-baited and insecticide-sprayed apple trees, fruit damage on untreated trees in the orchard perimeter 25 m apart from insecticide-sprayed trees had the same reduction in fruit damage as a fully sprayed orchard (Morrison et al 2019), providing a proof of concept that an A&K strategy is conceivable for BMSB control, which could lower pesticide use (Krawczyk et al 2019;Rice et al 2017). Combining the aggregation pheromone with synthetic plant semiochemicals has the potential to further improve the efficacy of an A&K strategy (Morrison et al 2018;Nielsen et al 2011).…”

Attraction of Brown Marmorated Stink Bugs, Halyomorpha halys, to Blooming Sunflower Semiochemicals

I tested whether the brown marmorated stink bug (BMSB), Halyomorpha halys, discriminates among phenological stages of sunflower, Helianthus annuus. When BMSB females in a still-air laboratory experiment were offered a choice of potted sunflowers at distinct phenological stages (vegetative, pre-bloom, bloom, seeding), most females settled onto blooming plants. In moving air olfactometer experiments, testing each plant stage versus one another, for the attraction of BMSB females, blooming sunflowers overall were most attractive. Analyzing the headspace odorants of each plant stage revealed a marked increase of odorant abundance as plants transitioned from pre-bloom to bloom. Thirteen blooming-stage odorants elicited responses from female BMSB antennae. A synthetic blend of antennally-active odorants attracted BMSB females in laboratory olfactometer experiments, and in field settings enhanced the attractiveness of BMSB pheromone as a trap lure, particularly in spring. Sunflower semiochemicals coupled with synthetic BMSB pheromone could be developed to improve efforts to monitor and control BMSB populations.
