In the year 2021 it was implemented an experimental design to monitor the course of the adult population on the western side of Amfilochia Bay. In two different farms were placed various food attractants in McPhail type traps. The arrests of Bactrocera oleae were recorded every three days thriving in them. The captures were different in the two farms with the superiority of the first and a clear superiority in both of the aqueous solution of ammonium sulfate as an olfactory attractant. In the year 2021 during the time period of monitoring the evolution of olive fruit fly population, it was characterized by high temperatures, but this fact did not affect the dakus due to the special microclimate of the area and this was recorded in the captures. From the moment that the olive fruit in the examined area becomes suitable for being attacked by the female individuals of dacus, it is also a candidate for its destruction by the larva of the insect.
