Description

Activities
The washington state department of agriculture will install megaplatypus mutatus detection traps at fifteen sites identified as high-likelihood introduction and/or establishment sites for the species based on literature review and approved methods. This study will provide for the placement of three additional traps at each of these sites, resulting in a 2X2 factorial study design investigating the influence of trap color as well as the approved lure on apoidea bycatch. Deliverables and expected outcomes: following completion of this agreement, the cooperative agricultural pest survey will be provided with a potential recommendation for trapping M. Mutatus while mitigating by-catch of managed and native apoidea.
Intended beneficiaries
Efforts will support efforts of plant protection and quarantine, and other collaborating federal, state and local agencies, to provide early detection tools for these potentially invasive ambrosia beetles. Additionally, this work will support the cooperative agricultural pest survey.
