The results revealed that gossyplure is an effective attractant for male moths of pink bollworm and can be used successively for monitoring seasonal emergence and population development in future period, as a tool in pest management programme. The use of sex pheromone such as gossyplure result in a substantial reduction in the number of pesticide application required for the control of bollworms during the cotton growing season.
