The 11Z-Hexadecenal and 9Z-Hexadecenal (97:3) blend is a synthetic mimic of natural sex pheromones used in pest management, particularly for lepidopteran pests like pink bollworm and other moth species. This carefully balanced ratio replicates female insect emission to lure and disrupt male insect mating behavior. Used widely in pheromone traps, mating disruption systems, and integrated pest management (IPM) programs. It has alternate cas 56219-04-6.

This specific ratio mimics natural pheromone profiles of pests like pink bollworm, improving attraction and trap specificity.
Yes, it is non-toxic and residue-free, and often certified for organic use depending on the carrier formulation.
Typically integrated into rubber septa or polymer matrix lures, which are placed in pheromone traps or dispensers.
Mainly cotton, but also used in fruit orchards and other systems with lepidopteran pest pressure.
No, the action is highly species-specific and has no known adverse effect on beneficial insect populations.
