Provided is a method capable of solving the problems associated with production of LVSA, which is a pheromone produced by female pest mealybugs, and is useful as an agrochemical pest, at an industrial large scale, and producing LVSA in a high yield. Specifically, the present invention provides a production method of 2-isopropenyl-5-methyl-4-hexen-1-yl 3-methyl-2-butenoate, comprising reacting senecioic acid with a halogenating agent to give senecioic acid halide, reacting the obtained senecioic acid halide with 2-isopropenyl-5-methyl-4-hexen-1-ol in the presence of an organic base compound and heat treating the obtained crude 2-isopropenyl-5-methyl-4-hexen-1-yl 3-methyl-2-butenoate in the presence of a basic substance at 50-250° C.
