Males of widow spiders courting on the web of females engage in web-reduction behavior which entails excising a section of the web, bundling it up, and wrapping it with their silk. Males of the false black widow spider, Steatoda grossa, in European p

Foraging behavior of Brown Rats (Rattus norvegicus) is commonly thought to be guided by olfactory cues. Here we tested the hypothesis that foraging Brown Rats eavesdrop on bird vocalizations to locate prey. We recorded calls of nestling Starlings (St

Mammalian pheromones often linger in the environment and thus are particularly susceptible to interceptive eavesdropping, commonly understood as a one-way dyadic interaction, where prey sense and respond to the scent of a predator. Here, we tested th
As recently reported, light flashes of incident sunlight reflecting off the wings of in-flight dipterans serve as mate recognition signals. Mate location and mate selection behavior in the yellow fever mosquito, Aedes aegypti, take place in mating sw

We have recently developed new food baits (SFU Mouse Bait, SFU Rat Bait) for trapping granivorous house mice, Mus musculus, and black rats, Rattus rattus, and for trapping omnivorous brown rats, Rattus norvegicus. Both baits contain synthetic long-ra

Urine of male house mice, Mus musculus, is known to have primer pheromone effects on the reproductive physiology of female mice. Urine-mediated releaser pheromone effects that trigger certain behavioral responses are much less understood, and no fiel

Synthetic replica of rat pup, Rattus norvegicus, vocalizations reportedly increase captures of wild rats in traps baited with natural scent of adult female rats. Here we tested the hypotheses (1) that synthetic calls of house mouse pups, Mus musculus

Leptoglossus occidentalis causes significant damage in conifer seed orchards. Host selection by L. occidentalis is not completely understood. Earlier research has demonstrated a preference for certain clones of Pinus contorta, indicating that L. occi

Trapping brown rats is challenging because they avoid newly placed traps in their habitat. Herein, we report the identification of the sex pheromone produced by male brown rats and its effect on trap captures of wild female brown rats. Collecting uri

BACKGROUND Rats are often neophobic and thus do not readily enter trap boxes which are mandated in rodent management to help reduce the risk of accidental poisoning or capture of non-target animals. Working with brown rats, Rattus norvegicus, as a mo
