Pheromone Lure Bactrocera cucurbitae, 50 pieces

The Pheromone Pheromone Lure Bactrocera cucurbitae (50 pieces) is a unique pheromone lure that targets specific species of insects. It is designed to entice the melon fly to approach and enter traps where they can easily be identified and counted. Made from natural materials such as rubber and wax to polyethylene and halobutyl, the lures ensure a lasting service life thanks to the constant release and the microencapsulation technology that protects the active agents from oxidation.
