I have read some posts on this site recently concerning pheromone lures, one of which involved Saturniidae, however all of the websites that those posts lead to only sell lures for UK species. Is there anywhere that sells lures for US species such as Anisota sp., Hemileuca, Hyalophora, etc.?

I have successfully used semiochemical lures to capture ♂ specimens of the saturnidae Hemileuca maia here in louisiana USA in my self-designed automatic-capture lure traps.
Please note the catch-all term 'pheromone' is woefully inaccurate as these categories have greatly expanded over many decades. Some of these semiochemical are classified as attractants, lures, pheromones, kiaramones, synomones, allomones, and also both males and females can be captured using some of these semiochemicals.
