A total of 48 randomly selected fish farms from the coasts of Izmir and Muğla, Aegean Sea were visited face-to-face interviewing with fish farmers and a total of 329 coastal fishermen, catches around the sea-cage fish farms between July 2015 and July 2017. We asked them the reasons for fish escapes from sea-cage fish farms. Answers were concerning with the predator attacks, storms, biting of cage-nets by reared fish and seabirds, slits of the nets, drop during transfer, etc.

Bark beetles (Coleoptera: Curculionidae) are among the important pests of forest in the world and in Turkey. Pine-feeding bark beetles interact chemically with their host tree via the behavioral, physiological, and biochemical effects of one class of monoterpenes. The half of oleoresin producing by trees such as pines, spruces, firs in the forests is the monoterpene. The monoterpenes occur in the oleoresin and function as behaviorally active kairomones for pine bark beetles and their predators, presenting a classic example of tritrophic chemical communication. The monoterpenes are aggregation pheromones for pine bark beetle. In the control of bark beetles, monoterpenes are used in traps. For example, the monoterpenes are an attractant for bark beetles. Also, Myrcene is used for a synergistic effect in the trap. Monoterpenes can toxic to insects. Limonene is among the most toxic monoterpenes to bark beetles. Also, the interaction is found between monoterpenes and prey of bark beetle. Monoterpenes are enhanced to respond of predatory to the pheromone of bark beetle.
