• Halyomorpha halys
• long-lasting insecticide net
• trap
• attract and kill

Long-lasting insecticide nets (LLINs), which have insecticide incorporated within the fibers, have been widely used for control of malaria and other insect-vectored diseases. Only recently have researchers begun exploring their use for control of agricultural pests. In this study, we evaluated the toxicity of a deltamethrin-incorporated LLIN, ZeroFly (Vestergaard-Frandsen, Washington, DC) for control of the brown marmorated stink bug, Halyomorpha halys (St (a) over circlel). In the lab, exposure to the ZeroFly net for 10 s resulted in > 90% mortality of H. halys nymphs and > 40% mortality of H. halys adults. Longer exposure to the net resulted in higher mortality. In another experiment, a 15-cm(2) sheet of ZeroFly net placed inside of the stink bug trap provided long-lasting kill of H. halys adults equal to or better than standard dichlorvos kill strip. Potential for the use of ZeroFly nets for H. halys IPM is discussed.
