A variety of traps have been developed for monitoring introduced populations of Pseudacteon spp.
However, when selecting an optimal trap for use in insect monitoring, different factors should be taken into account, for example, effectiveness at both low and high population densities; ability to detect/catch insects of potentially invasive species existing at a very low population; trap costs and ease of deployment and inspection, particularly in remote areas; effect on nontarget species, etc.

(2020)), using an adapted telescopic pole (folded length – 1.1 m, extended length – 5 m) (Paradox Company, Krakow, Poland). The highly significant overall preference of Diptera for yellow over green is evidently the result of the Phoridae numbers influencing the total, their numbers being an order of magnitude greater than any other family present. Statistica 10 software (StatSoft Inc., 2011) was used for the Wilcoxon test, and all other data analyses were undertaken using R environment, version 3.5.1 (R Core Team, 2018) with RStudio, version 1.1.463 (R Studio Team, 2016). Translations are not retained in our system. facilities and restaurants. The most easily recognized feature (seen with the naked eye) is In Experiment 2, the effect of trap colour was tested for both D. pini and nontarget insects, whereas the effect of presence and type of the capture liquid in traps was tested for D. pini only.
et Schiff.) During the trap inspection, male D. pini moths were removed and counted, whereas other insects in the traps with glycol solution were left in the traps, and capture liquid was topped up when necessary. In addition, this and previous research (Sukovata et al., 2020) has shown that they are effective at both high and low populations and are easy to assemble and deploy. of Phorid Flies, Phorid Fly Image, Phorid Fly Elimination, Some species prefer yellow, green and/or orange (Knight & Miliczky, 2003; Singh & Saxena, 2004; Karalius & Bûda, 2007; Roubos & Liburd, 2008), whereas others show preference for other colours (Taha et al., 2012; Mabrouk & Mahbob, 2015) or no preference (Clare et al., 2000; Bloem et al., 2005; Haynes et al., 2007).

Insects belonging to Diptera and Hymenoptera were identified at least to the family and, where possible, to genus and species. scum and materials that the flies must have to breed and Therefore, the aim of our research was (i) to compare the effectiveness of trap types (e.g., sticky and nonsticky traps) that have not been tested before; (ii) to estimate the effect of trap colour on trap effectiveness; (iii) to compare the effectiveness of dry and wet traps with different capture liquids; and (iv) to test the effect of trap colour (green vs yellow) on the catches of nontarget insects belonging to Hymenoptera and Diptera, particularly those that are potential parasitoids of forest insect pest species. flies easily follow air currents and usually have several breeding places in any
