Abstract

Bed bugs () have become established as common and significant commensal pests throughout the world. Effective bed bug monitoring and control programs remain challenging goals within the urban pest management industry. Pitfall "interceptor" traps and sticky "glue board" traps are the most commonly utilized devices for bed bug monitoring and detection in various settings. This study compares a novel leaf-derived trapping material (LDTM) and several selected pitfall and sticky traps for their capture efficacy of bed bugs. The LDTM employs a piercing-trapping mechanism in which trichomes physically impale bed bugs as they traverse the surface, preventing their further movement. Our results indicate that the LDTM captured bed bugs more effectively than three of the four selected commercial devices. Furthermore, our results reveal that the LDTM consistently trapped more bed bug nymphs than three of the four selected commercial traps. These findings underscore the potential of the LDTM as a valuable tool for enhancing monitoring and early detection strategies in bed bug integrated pest management (IPM) programs.

摘要

臭虫（）已成为全球常见且重要的共生害虫。有效的臭虫监测和控制计划在城市害虫管理行业中仍是具有挑战性的目标。陷阱式“拦截器”诱捕器和粘性“粘板”诱捕器是在各种环境中最常用于臭虫监测和检测的设备。本研究比较了一种新型叶源诱捕材料（LDTM）和几种选定的陷阱式及粘性诱捕器对臭虫的捕获效果。LDTM采用一种穿刺诱捕机制，即当臭虫穿过表面时，毛状体将其物理刺穿，阻止其进一步移动。我们的结果表明，LDTM比四种选定商业设备中的三种更有效地捕获臭虫。此外，我们的结果显示，LDTM始终比四种选定商业诱捕器中的三种捕获更多的臭虫若虫。这些发现强调了LDTM作为一种有价值工具在增强臭虫综合害虫管理（IPM）计划中的监测和早期检测策略方面的潜力。
