Abstract
The present invention relates to liquid formulations containing pheromones, in particular sex pheromones of insects, as an active ingredient, supported by an inert liquid material whereby a film-forming resin is formed on the surface of the liquid material when exposed to oxygen. The liquid pheromone formulations may be sprayed onto the leaves of plants and cured in situ on the leaves. The cured pheromone formulation is capable of controlled release of the pheromone over a period of time.
