| Abstract | ||
| The current field study focused on new green technology, a new technique that attracts and kills Lepidoptera moths, which induced more damage to crops, by making a "formulations" mixture of essential oils extracted from medical and aromatic plants that used to attract and kill lepidopteran moths, especially females. Microliter of basil oil (Ocimum basilicum Linn.), coriander oil (Coriandrum sativum L.), cuminoil (Cuminum cyminum L.), and chamomile oil (Matricaria chamomilla L.). The mixture of four essential oils was mixed at a rate of 50µl of each oil, then placed in the transparent capsule, then placed into a pheromone trap of cotton leafworm (Spodoptera littoralis). The field study was carried out during the 2017 season in the Giza governorate. The observed results in Sep 2017 were a high number of moths on the treated trap camper compared to the control. Also, the studied combination attracted a kind of vital enemies from spiders to butterflies. Subsequently, increased the efficiency of sexual pheromone traps to catch more moths, also this invention was safer and protectant our environmental form populations. The patent number 30513 was granted in the year 2021. | ||
