LIGHT TRAP

Insect pests cause enormous losses to crops. Sole reliance on the application of chemical pesticides has led to several side effects like resurgence of pests, resistance to pesticides and outbreak of secondary pests coupled with problems of environmental pollution. To overcome these problems, eco-friendly integrated pest management (IPM) technology has been advocated. Light trap is one of the important IPM tools. Light traps are the most widely used visual traps for the agriculture insects pests and have been particularly important in surveillance programme and monitoring of the seasonal appearance of many species of moths, hoppers, beetles etc.
