Kermania pistaciella Amsel. (Lepidoptera: Tineidae) is a critical pest in pistachio cultivation, leading to significant yield loss and quality degradation. This study was conducted to evaluate the effectiveness of Delta, Funnel, and Pherecon trap types in attracting adult K. pistaciella. Statistical analyses were performed using ANOVA to assess the mean differences between the trap types. The results showed that the Delta trap had a significantly higher capture rate than the other two traps. The average number of adults caught by the Delta, Funnel, and Pherecon traps were 579.67, 403.67, and 380.00, respectively. The Delta trap peaked at an average of 600 adults captured at the end of April and early May, while the Funnel and Pherecon traps showed lower capture rates during this period. From May 23 to June 8, 2022, capture rates decreased across all traps. The Delta trap captured an average of 55.77 more adults than the Funnel trap and 46.92 more than the Pherecon trap, with these differences being statistically significant (p<0.01). However, no significant difference was observed between the Funnel and Pherecon traps (p > 0.05). Additionally, the interaction between trap types and time factors was also found to be significant (p<0.05).
