The attraction of Tropinota squalida adults to coloured plastic water traps in the newly reclaimed area of Nubaria was studied during 1988 and 1989. Results obatined revealed that the adults were attracted in reliable numbres to blue, white , yellow and green coloured traps . Few numbers of adults were attracted to red ones. The mass trapping trials showed that a trap density of 90 blue plastic bassins / feddan captured the highest number of adults . This procedure seemed to be promising in mass trapping the adults of I. squalida in apple orchard.
