Cydia pomonella 4/bag Feromoon

Effective against: Use Pherodis species-specific pheromones or attractants to lure male moths, beetles, scale insects, and flies into traps.

Mode of action
Pherodis dispensers release a species-specific sex pheromone or attractant and must be used in combination with an insect trap; the type of trap depends on the species to be monitored. The species-specific sex pheromone attracts males of the target pest into the trap. Capturing males also helps reduce the number of eggs laid by females since mating is prevented. For some pests, Pherodis dispensers contain attractants that lure both sexes of the target species.

Preparation

• Remove the pheromone dispenser packets from refrigeration and open the packets.

• Do not touch the dispenser directly, as pheromone may be transferred by hand contact to other places.

Application

• Place the dispenser inside the trap and position the trap according to the instructions for the specific trap.

• Wash your hands between handling pheromone traps for different pest species.

• In the first days after placing a new capsule, a temporary increase in pest catches may occur due to higher pheromone release.

• Pheromone dispensers remain effective for up to six weeks.
