Thanks for the info... very interesting. To confirm, I didn't actually check with the supplier in Australia to see if they actually supplied the trap, and I'm not aware of anyone using such traps.

The picture on the Australian website appears to be an Agrisense trap. Sometime in the early 2000's the lab doing this synthesis work for Agrisense discontinued synthesizing this pheromone and thus Agrisense discontinued selling the lures. I have not heard that they overcame this problem. Insects Limited has attempted to synthesize this compound unsuccessfully. It is an extremely difficult pheromone to synthesize and my guess is that is the reason that the Agrisense lab quit making it in the first place. I would be interested to see if the company in the Australian website can actually supply this product. If so, I would like to hear how it is working for anyone using it. If there is a pheromone that has sound chemistry that has been field tested product being offered here, Insects Limited would be more than happy to carry it for the US market. I tend to be a little skeptical after more than a decade with only a few products being offered that have basically no attraction to Anobium. In the mean time, Dr. Uwe Nolt of the Johann Heinrich von Thunen- Institute (vTI)in Germany has done lots of great work with Anobium by monitoring with light traps and paper coverings on focused areas of wooden structures and wooden collections.

I've obviously already looked at, and contacted, the obvious places (i.e., those suppliers listed on museumpest.net), but they couldn't help me. I've seen these in Australia (and the UK, and Germany) referred to as "The Anobid Trap": cf. http://www.entosol.com.au/prodpc_b.htm Anyone have any ideas for US suppliers?
