| Description | 246Pheromones have become a very popular as well as potentially vital tool in insect management programs, as evidenced by the discussion in many chapters of this book. Much effort has been directed at using these biologically important chemicals not only in survey programs to detect and monitor insect populations but also in attempts to suppress mating of a wide variety of insects. In almost all cases, these field uses of the pheromones require chemicals that are formulated in such a way that they remain biologically active over a prolonged period. Without this formulation, activity generally drops rapidly because the materials volatilize or degrade. For this reason, controlled or slow release formulations that extend the activity of the pheromone over weeks or months are highly important.
