Lepidopterous insect pests; fig moth Ephestia cautella, raisin moth E. figulilella and carob moth E. calidella, infest dates in date stores. This infestation is the main problem facing date trade in Iraq, especially after inhibiting methyl bromide uses as a fumigant, because it appeared to be ozone depleting agent. The results of using the parasitoid, Bracon hebetor Say. And the pheromone traps for controlling the stored product moth insects proved to be highly efficient when they were used together in three simulated date stores in governorates: Baghdad, Karbala and Babylon, Iraq for a period of 5 months. Percentage of preserving dates were 91.6, 96.8 and 85.9% in comparison with 80.7, 76.2 and 73.8%, respectively in date stores in which pheromone traps were used only, with 70.2, 62.5 and 53.2%, respectively for the control stores. The results suggest that the parasitoid, B. hebetor and pheromone traps could be recommended to be used for controlling such moth insects. Furthermore, the survey of Ephestia spp., using pheromone traps in the date palm orchards of the abovementioned governorates during the year 2010 showed that the average total numbers of catches of Ephestia spp. Were 499.4, 419 and 621 insects per trap, respectively. These results are very important for planning to control these insect pests in future using IPM program which should concentrate upon controlling these insect pests in orchards and date stores. noneEmail20150313
