Adult white stripe long-horned beetle are attracted to tree sap and fermenting fruits, which can be used as bait in traps.

The larvae of white stripe long-horned beetle are typically found within the wood of deciduous trees, often in weakened or dead specimens where they feed on the inner layers. In search of these larvae, one would inspect such trees, paying close attention to the presence of exit holes or frass that indicates their presence. Adult white stripe long-horned beetle, which emerge after metamorphosis, are commonly found on or near the same host trees. Searching for adults involves looking on tree trunks, branches, and even on flowers, as they are known to feed on sap and pollen. Each stage's location reflects its particular ecological needs for shelter and food during that phase of development.

The best time to find adult white stripe long-horned beetle is during the warmer months, in the evening or night when they are most active.

Searching for white stripe long-horned beetle is most fruitful on warm, dry evenings when the humidity is moderate, as high humidity can encourage fungal growth which may be detrimental to white stripe long-horned beetle.
