Pheromone trap for plum fruit moth "Pherozzip"
New
Pherozzip - pheromone trap for the plum fruit moth (Grapholita funebrana).
Rid your garden of this pest. Safe for bees, humans and the environment. Valid for 4-6 weeks.
An effective remedy for protecting stone fruit trees from the plum moth.
Operating principle.
A bait - a dispenser is placed in a trap with a sticky bottom. The dispenser contains a pheromone that continuously evaporates into the surrounding space and attracts the plum moth butterflies to the trap. Once trapped, butterflies reliably adhere to a special glue (odorless and without the addition of harmful substances).
Application.
It is advisable to hang pheromone traps in the garden with the beginning of flowering of fruit trees and use them during the entire growing season.
The traps should be attached to horizontally located branches of the outer part of the crown of the tree so that they are protected from direct sunlight, at a height of 1.5-2.5 meters from the ground.
The required number of traps is determined from the calculation: 1 trap for 1-2 fruit trees.
2-4 weeks after installing the trap, the dusty or insect-covered glue liner should be replaced with a new one.
4-6 weeks after installing the trap, it is recommended to replace the trap with a new one.

* The pheromone of the male plum moth does not attract other insects to the trap, since it is aimed specifically at attracting females of its particular species.
* The use of insect pheromones is allowed for widespread use in amateur and industrial gardening, since they do not pollute the environment and are safe for people and animals.
Syn.: Cydia funebrana.
Protect your harvest without "chemistry"!
Unlike insecticides and pesticides, pheromones do not pollute the soil, but disintegrate into harmless components under the influence of natural factors. This property allows them to be used at any stage of plant development.
Pheromone traps: device, purpose and advantages.
The principle of operation of a pheromone trap.
Communication between insects is much richer than we think, for example, insects clearly distinguish pheromones of their own species. Therefore, scientists used this phenomenon to effectively combat pests of cultivated trees and shrubs, inventing a method of catching a specific insect pest by synthesizing pheromones. A pheromone trap is an invention designed to catch codling moths, leaf rollers, cutworms, moths, glassworms, etc. Such a trap with a smart bait can purposefully destroy the population of harmful insects without causing harm to the beneficial inhabitants of the garden. Suitable for installation in gardens, forest belts, greenhouses, hotbeds, warehouses.
Pheromones are substances produced by the body of an insect to attract individuals of the opposite sex. This product of internal secretion (specific attractants) has been successfully synthesized by biologists for various species and populations.
Today, there are several types of synthetic pheromones:
* sex attractants, which act to attract male insects;
* aggregation attractants, which attract insects of both sexes;
* repellent attractants, which cause anxiety;
* territorial attractants, which indicate that a given area is already occupied;
* trail attractants, which attract social insects (for example, ants).
There are two ways to use pheromone traps:
1. Pheromone vaporizers (baits) are hung on trees, which disorient males by interrupting the smell of females. As a result, the female lays unfertilized eggs, which reduces the numerical indicator of the population (the best result is achieved by simultaneously placing such traps in all nearby areas).
2. Physical trapping of males, causing a deficit of males, which are usually fewer than females (the effectiveness of the method depends on the number of traps used). The effect of the pheromone extends within a radius of 50 m, which implies installing one trap per 3-5 trees.
* In addition, pheromone traps can act as an indicator, allowing you to monitor the condition of the garden both in early spring and throughout the growing season.
