Only recently have researchers begun exploring their use for control of agricultural pests. In this study, we evaluated the toxicity of a deltamethrin-incorporated LLIN, ZeroFly (Vestergaard-Frandsen, Washington, DC) for control of the brown marmorated stink bug, Halyomorpha halys (St (a) over circlel). In the lab, exposure to the ZeroFly net for 10 s resulted in > 90% mortality of H. halys nymphs and > 40% mortality of H. halys adults. Longer exposure to the net resulted in higher mortality. In another experiment, a 15-cm(2) sheet of ZeroFly net placed inside of the stink bug trap provided long-lasting kill of H. halys adults equal to or better than standard dichlorvos kill strip. Potential for the use of ZeroFly nets for H. halys IPM is discussed.543 - 545 (3) page(s)application/pdfenCreative Commons CC0 1.0 Universal Public Domain DedicationEntomologyHalyomorpha halyslong-lasting insecticide nettrapattract and killTREATED NETSArticle - Refereedhttps://doi.org/10.1093/jee/tow3211102Kuhar, TP [0000-0002-2076-1494]1938-291X
