An effective 'push-pull' control strategy for European tarnished plant bug, Lygus rugulipennis (Heteroptera: Miridae), in strawberry using synthetic semiochemicals.

To our knowledge, this is the first demonstration of a push-pull approach using synthetic semiochemicals giving a significant reduction in crop damage by mirids and paves the way for non-pesticide control of a range of mirid species on multiple crops. © 2021 Society of Chemical Industry.
