Abstract
Cis -8-dodecenyl acetate, the female sex attractant pheromone of Grapholitha molesta (Busck), can be synergized with either dodecyl alcohol or 8-propoxyoctan-1-ol. The most attractive mixtures found were 200 μg Cis -8-dodecenyl acetate and either 800 μg dodecyl alcohol or 2000 μg 8-propoxyoctan-l-01 released from rubber septa. Dodecyl acetate is a good inhibitor of the sex pheromone.
