                    [Summary] => Onion farmers can capitalize on the sex urge of the moths of two major insect pests of onion — common cutworm and armyworm — to kill them.


Philippine Rice Research Institute researchers have found that at night when cutworm and armyworm moths are actively feeding on the leaves of onion crops, the female moths emit a chemical called sex pheromone that attracts the male insects for mating.  Even at a far distance, the male moths could smell the sex pheromone and out of instinct, would fly immediately to the location of the chemical in search of a mate.
