There is a growing diversity of strategies to control grapevine moth Lobesia botrana and grape berry moth Eupoecilia ambiguella, the two dominant pest species in the vineyards of Central Europe. This article reviews the various methods based on the use of sexual pheromones, which were used in the past, are currently in use or still in development: mass trapping, attract-and-kill, autosterilization, mating disruption (usual, false-trail following, micro-encapsulated formulations, auto-confusion). The theoretical mode of action and strengths and weaknesses of each technique are discussed. Finally, a general assessment of the various procedures is presented according to different criteria (efficacy, costs, work, etc.).
