Products were screened as repellants for MALB in short-term laboratory trials. Products that showed a repellency of ≥50% were evaluated for residual repellency 24, 48, and 72 h after application. Eight repellent compounds were then evaluated in field trials in commercial vineyards with high MALB populations. The number of MALBs on vines was counted 2–6 h and 24–28 h after application.
