1 Newsletter nº 2 / December 2015 INNOVATIVE ECO FRIENDLY TRAPS FOR THE CONTROL OF PINE LEPIDOPTERA IN URBAN AND RECREATIONAL PLACES. LIFE13 ENV/ES/
2 Stanislaw Kinelski, Polish Forest Research Institute, Bugwood.org What is LIFE PISA Project about? The Pine Processionary (Thaumetopoea pityocampa) and Pine Lappet (Dendrolimus pini) are moths of the families Thaumetopoeidae and Lasiocampidae, and are abundant species found in pine woods in north, central and southern Europe, and a major economic pest causing human and pet health problems (allergies, skin illness, etc). The species are notable for the behaviour of its caterpillar larvae, which overwinter in tentlike nests high in pine trees, and which process through the woods in nose-to-tail columns, protected by their severely irritating hairs. Thaumetopoea pityocampa nest Current methods to control this infestation have some limitations to control medium-large amounts of them and/or they are expensive. This project aims to demonstrate and improve monitoring and control using new methods combined with traditional systems applied in urban or recreational areas in 4 countries (Spain, Italy, UK and Greece), where large-scale aerial or targeted insecticide application is not possible; and to improve current traps systems to increase significantly their effectiveness, reduce cost and to be adapted to each selected demonstrative urban pine areas. Dendrolimus pini nest
3 Ojectives Decrease populations of pine Processionary and pine Lappet in demonstration areas. Significantly reduce irritating injuries and allergic reactions. Deploy traps with minimal visual effect that are non-damaging to other forest animals and plants. Optimize an innovative trunk barrier device for easy installation and removal. Improve the design and efficiency of pheromone traps. Study efficiency of Mating Disruption (MD) techniques. Life cycle Fulfill Directive 2009/128/CE: rational use of chemical pesticides. Transfer knowledge to forest pest control authorities, town halls, neighbourhood associations. 3

PROJECT BUDGET AND REQUESTED EU FUNDING The 18 Month Meeting of the project will take place next 9 th February 2016 at the Benaki Phytopathological Institute facilities in Benaki, Greece. During the meeting, the project consortium will show the final 1 st year results and will set the selection of the approaches for the 2016 season: - New design for trunk traps. - New design for adult traps. - Strategies for MD. - % of Objectives accomplished. In addition, different dissemination activities will be planned for the following months. Total project budget: 1,118,232 Total eligible project budget: 1,108,232 EU financial contribution requested: 554,116 (= 50.00% of total eligible budget) 5

In addition, the website offers to visitors the possibility to see the forthcoming events related to LIFE PISA as well as a summary of past events. The LIFE PISA project has been disseminated by the LIFE PISA consortium in different media channels. A press release about the project was launched, with a great impact in the different media. Two workshops were organised: one in Campobasso- Italy (by University of Molise and the Molise Region) and another one in Volos- Greece (by the University of Thessaly and the Collaboration of Benaki Phytopatological Insitute). Both of them were covered by press and TV. A third workshop will be organised by Benaki Phytopathological Institute at the Institute of Agricultural Sciences next 10 th February More information is available in the Project web site: Partners will also participate in Trade Fairs. Some pictures will be included in the following newsletters. 6
