Sex pheromone baited monitoring traps are a critical tool for integrated pest management decisions against many insects, particularly codling moths (Cydia pomonella L.). The addition of cameras for remote monitoring has the potential to enhance the usefulness of these important tools. However, changes in trap design could potentially alter plume structure and trapping efficiency of these new traps. Here we look at several trap configurations designed to optimize the capture of codling moths in traps equipped with cameras. We found that, in both wind tunnel and field trials, camera equipped triangle traps and camera equipped rectangle traps (both V1 and V2) caught codling moths equivalent to a standard 'delta' style trap. While catch was unaffected, altering our rectangular trap opening from 4 to 8 cm (V1 and V2, respectively) decreased frequency of moths contacting the front of trap and increased the frequency of moths flying directly into the trap. We show that these novel camera equipped semiochemical-baited traps catch equivalent to the industry standard white delta trap.
性信息素诱捕监测器是针对许多昆虫（特别是苹小卷叶蛾（Cydia pomonella L.））进行综合虫害管理决策的重要工具。添加远程监测摄像头有可能增强这些重要工具的实用性。然而，诱捕器设计的变化可能会改变这些新型诱捕器的羽流结构和诱捕效率。在这里，我们研究了几种诱捕器配置，旨在优化配备摄像头的诱捕器对苹小卷叶蛾的捕获。我们发现，在风洞和野外试验中，配备摄像头的三角形诱捕器和配备摄像头的矩形诱捕器（V1 和 V2 型）捕获的苹小卷叶蛾与标准的“三角”型诱捕器相当。虽然捕获量没有受到影响，但将我们的矩形诱捕器开口从 4 厘米（V1 型）和 8 厘米（V2 型）改变为 8 厘米，会降低昆虫接触诱捕器前部的频率，并增加昆虫直接飞入诱捕器的频率。我们表明，这些新型配备摄像头的半化学引诱剂诱捕器与行业标准的白色三角诱捕器捕获量相当。
