Title:
Composition for attracting the cotton boll weevil
Abstract:
A synthetically prepared boll weevil attractant has been formulated so as to include crude cottonseed oil. This formulation, in the form of a gelled emulsion, has been used to trap and destroy boll weevils for periods up to 2 weeks. The new formulation releases the active ingredients at a more favorable rate and is effective for longer periods than previously developed ones.
