“…Symptoms of infestation such as canopy dieback and epicormic shoots are not apparent until trees are heavily attacked, by which point populations of emerald ash borer in the area are quite high (Poland & McCullough, 2006;McCullough et al, 2009). Fortunately, emerald ash borers exhibit positive phototaxis to wavelengths of light in the green (540-560 nm), blue (420-430, 460 nm) and red (640-650, 670 nm) ranges, which has led to the use of both green and purple prism-shaped sticky traps (Francese et al, 2008;Crook et al, 2009;Crook & Mastro, 2010;Silk et al, 2019b). These traps are often baited with lures composed of volatiles found in ash leaves ((3Z)-hexenol) and tree oils, such as manuka oil (from the New Zealand tea tree, Leptospermum scoparium J.R. and G. Forst (Myrtaceae)) and phoebe oil (from the Brazilian walnut tree, Phoebe porosa Mez (Lauraceae)) (de Groot et al, 2008;Crook & Mastro, 2010;Grant et al, 2010;Poland et al, 2011).…”
