Develipment of an effective and safe detection or control system is important for pest management. Attractants for male fruit files, e.g. methyl eugenol, are currently being used in fruit control in combination with insecticides. A single formulation that possesses both attraction and killing properties would improve control methods and cost effectiveness. We previously observed the attraction of oriental fruit flies to a basil plat in a yard and confirmed the attraction of male fruit flies to basil oil in the laboratory.
