New approaches and methods are required to control lepidopteran pests against agricultural crops without using toxic pesticides. Among them, chemical and natural attractants for moths can be directly used to attract insect pests1). This field study has been performed to investigate the attractiveness using the fermented fluid of oak tree, Quercus spp., by Pichia anomala in apple ochard of Jeonnam area of Korea from June to August, 2006. The traps containing the fluid
had been reconstructed based on commercial pheromone trap2). A total of 29 species of moths were captured in this study, among which 18 species of noctuidae, 6 cossidae forms and 5 tortricidae of moth were identified. These results suggested that adult moths might be effectively attracted and captured by means of volatile flavors from fermented fluid of oak tree. The
attractiveness of the fluid oak tree was environmentally friendly as well as superior to other chemical attractants3), 4). These findings suggest that the fermented fluid of oak tree can be used to control adult moth in agricultural field as a valuable substitute for chemical pesticides.
