Sexy scent may end cockroach bugaboo
By TOM GRESS Staff Writer
In a sixth-floor room in Snow Hall, William Bell, a small wry man with a goatee and long sideburns, stands surrounded by two million cockroaches. They are crawling in plastic containers and on garbage cans.
As he shows an observer a pregnant cockroach from the East Indies, Bell, a professor of entomology, looks like a character from a low-budget horror movie. "I'm afraid of being a monster," "See the mad scientist terrify millions in 'Invasion of the Giant Coccoaches'!"
But Bell has no sinister plan for his roaches. Instead, his study of cockroach behavior may help rid homes of the insects.
BELL HAS STUDIED how a man-made version of pheromone, a cockroach mating scent, works in attracting roaches to traps filled with poison. So far roaches can't tell the difference from the real and artificial scents, and now Bell and Bio Lure, a Pennsylvania company that is developing the product, must wait for the Environmental Protection Agency to approve the man-made pheromone for the open market.
"We had to fill out a report about this thick (about the size of a James Michener novel) and then the EPA will
decide on the stuff's efficacy," he said. "I want them to run more races with it than they want to ride more mets."
Pheromone is something like a Channel No. 5 for female cockroaches. The pheromone triggers the mating routine for the male. The traps with the man-made pheromone prey on insects, and it helps to poison instead of sex. Most polites now on the market use a food extract as an attractant.
Pheromone is something like a Chanel No. 5 for female cockroaches. The pheromone triggers the mating saw how the mating process began.
"In the late '50s, researchers isolated Pheromone. In 1975 Dutch researchers put together the molecular structure, which wasn't easy because it is very complex," said Ms. Buisse, a biology professor of chemistry, Clark Still, synthesized pheromone."
STILL SENDS the man-made pheromone to Bell for the behavioral studies. Bell has found that only a millionth of a microgram of the scent is needed to attract the roaches, but that it doesn't last long in the open.
"It disintegrates very fast," he said,
"so we're placing it in a tube to see if it lasts longer. It gets absorbed into the water. It still disintegrates but not so fast."
Pheromones appear in other insects

"We put a dot on the back of a roach using fluorescent paint," Bell said. "The roach is put on the sphere with a camera lens mounted above the roach, and the lens adjusts the sphere so the roach stays in the same spot."
Pheromone is used to make the roach move. A television screen follows the path and a computer translates the path into numbers. Using information about the environment, roaches have built-in orientations that are activated under certain conditions.

"The co寇船 is an admirable research subject," he said. "It's hardy, able to take large amounts of injections and is plentiful. It has a decentralized nervous system, which makes it interesting. We've found that its head can be cut off and it will still live for two weeks.
AMERICAN AND GERMAN cockroaches, both found in households, dominate Bell's studies, but he does have 28 other species in his lab.
BELL'S BEHAVIORAL studies, especially with pheromone, may be just in time because he said he thinks the cockroach population is growing.
"I can't really be sure," he said, "but whyimagine that someone like society lay out on the ground and they are gods of chance."
"We caught a lot in the tropics, down in Costa Rica," he said. "Sometimes a researcher will catch a new species and mall it to us."
