Abstract
The USDA Forest Service's Early Detection and Rapid Response Program (EDRR) is a nationally coordinated program that employs traps for detecting, delimiting, and monitoring newly introduced exotic bark and ambrosia beetles. The utility of the trapping portion depends upon effectiveness of lures--a difficult proposition because target species are varied and likely have specific hostfinding behaviors.
