Interpretive Summary:

Technical Abstract: SPLAT® (Specialized Pheromone and Lure Application Technology) matrix is a unique controlled-release technology that can be adapted to dispense and protect a wide variety of compounds from degradation, including semi chemicals, pesticides, and phagostimulants, in diverse environments. ISCA Technologies in collaboration with colleagues in academia, government, and industry, has been developing SPLAT®based insect control products for over a decade. We will provide an overview of SPLAT® technology and existing commercial formulations and describe ongoing efforts to develop new SPLAT® mating disruption, attract and kill, and repellent products for pest control in agricultural and forest environments.
