New Zealand pest management: current and future challenges (2015, methodology): “New Zealand’s only operational case of SIT use involved the painted apple moth in Auckland, where there was an overflooding release of parental males carrying inherited sterility (Suckling et al. 2007).”
When are eradication campaigns successful? A test of common assumptions (2012, methodology): “of the painted apple moth (Teia anartoides) in New Zealand, were a combination of tactics was used, including the sterile insect technique (Suckling et al. 2007).”
Eradication of invasive forest insects: concepts, methods, costs and benefits (2010, methodology): “An eradication campaign was planned and ground-based spraying with Lorsban 50 W ® and Decis Forte® was carried out in conjunction with surveys of the location of potential host trees (Alan Flynn, Ministry of Agriculture and Forestry, Auckland, pers. comm.; Suckling et al., 2007a).”
Ecology of forest insect invasions (2017, background): “The species was considered to pose a risk to forests and successfully eradicated between 1999 and 2003 (Suckling et al. 2007).”
