There is provided a method of controlling filbertworm capable of reducing the number of release positions without changing a dosage amount per unit area. More specifically, there is provided a method of controlling filbertworm comprising the step of: providing E,E-8,10-dodecadienyl acetate or a composition comprising 80% by weight or more of E,E-8,10-dodecadienyl acetate at 1 to 100 release positions/ha to release the E,E-8,10-dodecadienyl acetate at a release rate of from 0.01 to 5 g/day/ha for mating disruption.
