-
procedures for the use of the traps and items
Multilure
The Multilure trap is a highly effective tool for detecting and targeting fruit fly infestations. Made from durable thermoplastic, it is easy to disassemble for cleaning and bait refilling. Compared to traditional McPhail traps, the Multilure offers superior performance, making it a top choice for professionals in agriculture and research to monitor and control fruit fly populations, protecting crops and fruit quality.
Multilure Mini
This insect trap targets fruit-damaging pests like the Mediterranean fruit fly. It features a clear glass lid for visibility, a yellow bottom lid to attract pests, and a yellow stopper to prevent escapes, ensuring efficient capture
Jackson Trap (Plastic)
The Jackson trap is designed to capture Mediterranean fruit flies and is made from durable white sulfated plastic, ensuring longevity and resilience in outdoor conditions. Its high visibility enhances effectiveness by attracting fruit flies, while advanced attractant technology ensures reliable, consistent results for fruit fly control in agricultural settings
Double Sided Sticky Boards
Our trap is designed for effective detection and monitoring of the Asian Citrus Psyllid (Diaphorina citri Kuwayama). It outperforms traditional sticky cards by capturing significantly more pests, thanks to its dual-sided adhesive coating for maximum efficiency. Available in Yellow, Green, and Blue, the trap can be customized to suit different environments and pest control needs, offering superior pest management and accurate monitoring.
Wing Trap
The Wing Trap is adjustable to optimize performance for different insects. It can be used with spacer bars for full plume flow or without them for pests like Red banded Leafroller and Codling Moth, directing the pheromone plume downward. The trap features a replaceable sticky paperboard bottom with a grid for easy insect counting. Ideal for general monitoring, it’s widely used in vegetable, fruit, nut crops, and stored products.
Plastic Delta Trap
Plastic delta traps are made from durable corrugated plastic, designed to withstand harsh weather, rain, and UV rays. The sticky liner is protected inside the trap to guard against the elements. With easily replaceable sticky liners, these traps are cost-effective and versatile, effectively capturing moth species of all sizes.
Diamond Trap
The Diamond Trap serves as a versatile trap suitable for a wide range of monitoring programs that require disposable traps. This particular trap is particularly favored in certain regions of the United States and Canada due to its compact size, which is viewed as a beneficial feature. It has demonstrated its effectiveness in tree fruit Integrated Pest Management (IPM) programs as well as in the monitoring of stored product moths.
C&C Trap
C&C (Cook and Cunningham) is comprised of three detachable panels. The outer panels, made of coated paper board, are flanked by a central panel containing 10g of trimedlure. Clips securely hold the entire unit together. The trap was specifically designed for the controlled release of trimedlure, allowing for precise amounts to be dispensed. It is also utilized for monitoring and detecting instances of minimal medfly populations. Depending on the prevailing environmental conditions, the lure within the trap can remain effective for an extended period, spanning several months
Paper Delta Trap
The paper delta trap serves as a versatile bi-directional trap, suitable for use in monitoring programs that require a durable treated paperboard triangle trap. Its vibrant orange color ensures easy visibility for field staff, while the internal grid pattern aids in convenient counting. The paper delta trap has demonstrated its efficacy in Pink Bollworm monitoring and has proven resilient even in challenging weather conditions encountered in the field.
Walnut Husk Fly Trap
The Walnut Husk Trap is primarily employed for monitoring the presence of the walnut husk fly. It is recommended to install these traps by the end of June, prior to the emergence of adult flies from the soil. The trap's yellow color is particularly effective in attracting various airborne insects, such as fruit flies, thrips, aphids, gnats, and other fly species.
Jackson Trap (Carton)
The paper Jackson trap has demonstrated its efficacy in effectively trapping the Mediterranean fruit fly. It is a cost-effective solution for fruit fly monitoring, thanks to its replaceable sticky-coated insert. The inserts can be ordered separately, allowing for convenient replacement when needed. The traps are specifically designed to accommodate these replaceable sticky inserts, which can be easily slid out when they become full of insects. Additionally, there are various accessories available to complement the use of these traps.
