A study was conducted to identify the best trap for monitoring the maize rootworm (D. virgifera virgifera). The traps (USA Trece lure trap, Multigard yellow sticky trap and Hungarian pheromone trap) were placed in the maize field located in eastern Croatia from 23 June 2000 and the experiment was conducted until 15 September of the same year. The pheromone and sticky traps were replaced with new ones each month. Traps were positioned 60 m apart within a row and 70 m apart across rows.
