A binary mixture of (Z)-ll-hexadecenal and (Z)-13-octadecenal was first identified as the sex pheromone components of female Chilo suppressalis. Later, an additional component was identified as (Z)-9-hexadecenal, which markedly enhanced the attractiveness to males when it was mixed to the binary mixture. Rubber septa containing ca. 0.3–1.0 mg of a mixture of the above three components in the natural ratio have been shown to keep up significantly higher attractiveness than virgin females for at least one month. It has also been shown that the pheromone trap is much more effective than a light trap, where both traps usually showed similar trap catch patterns. Several factors affecting trap catch, such as trap type, trap placement, etc., have been examined. Feasibility of the population monitoring with the synthetic pheromone was discussed.
